Absolutely. I enjoy playing Zach.
Yes.
I filmed 25 episodes in seven days.
What's up, Chris? Now, I think people need to understand the business aspect of it and what Tyler is trying to create, right? So, I'll give you an example. You're a producer. You get a budget of... $30 million. $30 million, right? People, that's a lot of money, right?
Do you know how far $30 million goes on a traditional TV set?
Five episodes. Maybe six.
Maybe six. What Tyler has figured out is a way. So you're talking about anywhere between five to six million an episode. Tyler spends about $750,000 an episode. I love a cheap nigga.
You see what I'm saying? But here's the thing though with TPS. I'm glad you said that. All of the actors, everybody on there makes more money in that two weeks than they ever made. You see that?
But sometimes the things don't look the same as someone who's doing an episode for two weeks. Mm-hmm. You got to understand who's telling the audience.
Who you telling? I be in the motherfucker.
You ever get a scene? So let me tell you something, right? I gotta ask you. No, no, no. I'm gonna talk about this. Let him cook. A scene in television is typically one page for one minute. Yes. I get my scenes sometimes for team and I'm like, this is 15 fucking pages.
That's 15 minutes we on the same thing.
But then you realize, I gotta make this entertaining for the viewers. If you do theater, sometimes you have a scene in theater That may be 15 minutes. If you are a thespian, you find a way to make what you do entertaining.
If you're not a thespian and you're a person that just wants to be presented in the most beautiful way possible and you don't want to do no work, that 15 minutes is going to be fucking hell. And the truth is sometimes it happens to people who act with TP. They don't know what it is. The truth is Sisters is a soap opera.
It is a soap opera in prime time.
Which is what we don't see.
Right? Soap operas happen every single day. Sisters happens every week. So a lot of people, they may be like, oh, this is slow. This is slow. When you watch soap operas every day, you're getting something every single day.
I get it, too.
You want me to tell the truth? Tell the truth. Matt is over there. Matt, I'm saying. I be getting a script sometimes and I be like, I'm not saying none of the words just on that page. Am I lying? I'm not. But, and I had a conversation with Tyler.
And I said to Tyler, I said, yo, T, man, like, come on, man, what we doing? And this is how you know somebody, like, really knows. And Karen been pregnant for, like, four seasons. But it's been, no, it hasn't been four seasons.
