Did you feel it was a seamless transition back into Valerie?
Well, yes. Actually, yes. Michael Patrick King and I, we just decided it's been nine years so it's been nine years. What's fantastic about that is more happens to a human being nine years down the line. There's stuff that's like real stakes and not just—as much as we love "Which hair product should I use? I don't know."—those big decisions there are actual big decisions that was kind of fun to see what she does with that.
I know you guys had been talking about it here and there. Did you get everything you wanted in that you had thought about Valerie over the years?
Yeah, in the first 10 minutes of the first episode.
What can you share about the HBO dramedy she's starring in now?
It's called Seeing Red, written by Paulie G [Lance Barber].
