Interview
Did it feel different during the shoot? Did it feel like you had more room to breathe knowing that these episodes you were shooting wouldn’t air until much later?
No. I mean, I literally had much less room to breathe because I had a foot in my lung, but no. I felt under the gun to sort of get what we had to get done, and not from the people I work for but just because I wanted to make sure that we could get what we needed to get done. Childbirth is such a mystery. You don’t know when a baby is coming. I just think I was more focused on getting done what we needed to get done in the time that we had.
What was your reaction to the assassination of Frankie (Ricardo Chavira)?
I was shocked. We have already had assassination attempts on our show. I did not see it coming at all.
