Tim Bagley has so much experience doing comedy on television that his credits read like a comprehensive list of every sit-com over the past 30 years. But his depiction of Brad Schraeder on “Somebody Somewhere” is on another level. It’s beautiful, truthful, restrained work, that is often hilarious and sometimes very moving. Few performances on television this year have impacted me more. On this episode, he talks about how the collaborative nature of that show helped so much with his work, the big part logic plays in his comedy, why it’s important to keep challenging himself, and much more. Plus he tells a couple wonderful stories about discovering that sometimes it’s not about you at all, and you have to just let it go. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft. Follow Back To One on Instagram
