Listen to Betrayal Season 5 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I want to keep talking about Martin because at the time, this show was like a cultural phenomenon, the Martin Lawrence show.

And one of the reasons, I think, was because of the look of the show.

There was even the opening title sequence.

There's kind of pastel looks and there was a vibe to Martin.

And how much of that did you contribute to when it came to the look of the characters?

Honestly, I personally did not.

But my because my job was just to take care of him.

I worked with him on Thin Line Between Love and Hate.

That's the show that ended up going union.

I mean, the day we turned union, I think the gangs we were shooting in.

Oh.

a very bad area.

And there was a truce call between I think the Crips and the Blood for us to be able to film there.

And then we had a bunch of delays and health issues that Martin went through.

And they, the Crips and Blood got really kind of pissed and basically said, they gave us like, I think like a timeframe.

And the day that we striked to turn union,

or the neighbors all came out and they were like, you guys need to get out before sundown because they're gonna start taking pot shots at you.

I mean, literally the producers came by, we're like grabbing the stuff and the producers like yelling at me, get in your car and leave.

And I was like, but there's still some clothes, I gotta get the dressing, the set dressing.
