Chemistry is just compatibility and ease of relationship around one another. Lauren and I spent a lot of time together. The show was fairly demanding of our time and energy, and it helps that we don’t get on each other’s nerves and we are respectful of each other’s process through, you know, day and night of shooting this thing.
Is the series going to be serialized or will episodes wrap up each week?
Both. The majority of the episodes will be self-contained. I liked the idea of having a procedural nature related to the crimes but having a serialized nature to the relationship.
Speaking of relationships, a lot of Scandal fans thought if anyone was going to win Olivia’s (Kerry Washington) heart other than Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) it was going to be Jake!
Me, too! I’ve been doing this a long time. I never had a better experience [than I did on Scandal]. It was a dream job, not a bad apple in the cast. Shonda Rhimes (series creator/executive producer) is not just a friend, but she runs a great show.
What do you think? Post a comment!
What did you learn from her?
I’ve learned it’s okay to burn through the story. She was a pioneer in that.
TV is seeing revivals galore these days and you’ve been on many series. Which program from your past would you like to see come back?
Scandal! No doubt about it! I would work with all those people from Shonda to Josh Malina (David)!
Whiskey Cavalier airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET, starting February 27 on ABC.
