So I think that was something to sort of navigate a little bit. Um, but then it all worked out because after that show ended, I took a big break and I didn't, um, act anymore.
I didn't think that's what I wanted to do anymore. Really?

Well, I thought I was going to go back to – or go to school because I hadn't gone to school. Because I graduated early from high school because I was on the Mickey Mouse Club.

Yeah. Because when you're on the Mickey Mouse Club, like if you're a kid, you're tutored on set so you can finish as quickly as you can. Same with Mr. Bateman. Yeah, we know about that.

Yeah, so doing that show, that was back in the old days when we would do 22 episodes. Now, you know, the nature of television tends to be like eight or 13 episodes, but we were still doing network, 22 episodes. Especially back then, we were working, because Matt Reeves was one of our first directors and set up the show, we were shooting it like film. We were shooting on film in the beginning.

Really? Yeah. Shooting on film? Yeah. We were working 18-hour days, five days a week. So my Friday as a 21-year-old would end about 5 in the morning, and then I would start again at 5 on Monday. Wow. I loved that job, and it was great, and I'm so thankful. I'm still really close with a few of those people. But in many ways, it was life-arresting.
