The day we shot Tressas scenes for this episode was my first day on set.
An actors first day on a new project is a lot like your first day at a new school.
Pam created such a fun, collaborative, creative environment on this show, I felt instantly at home.

As soon as I got to set, Pam said, I have a kid for you!
and I met Caleb, who plays my son.
All the women on this show are doing it themselves.
Its such a gift to get that kind of insight into a character on day one.
One really special thing aboutBetter Thingsthat people may not know is that most of the crew is female.
Thats unusual in this business, this is literally the first time Ive worked with a predominately female crew.
On the one hand, it shouldnt matter, because it doesnt change how the work gets done.
But on the other hand, the fact that its so unusual means it really does matter.
