Wynonna Earphad quite afirst season.

It really is a curse and a blessing but obviously 98 percent a blessing.

Having the same tone and feeling was almost the most important thing to us.

Season 1 was about Wynonna very much getting used to the idea of being the Earp heir.

So its about her trying to keep this dysfunctional family together as they really work on becoming a team.

There are lots of tough choices but at the same time, there might be some cheerleading.

So its going to be super fun.

What will she be dealing with on the supernatural front?

Because all the revenants in that photo are gone now.Theyre all gone!

No trauma thereat all!

Well, as always, each year on the show you have to up the stakes.

Syfy was very encouraging about pushing us to expand the world in the second season.

At the same time, shes got to put down every single revenant in the Earp curse.

So its just bigger, badder, better.

Once you put a tentacle on screen, youre like, What is this attached to?

I love coming up with different villains and different shades of evil and different things for us to fight.

But there are some big surprises.

What is Waverly up to this season?

I think this season continues that.

She doesnt have to be the good girl dating the high school boyfriend.

So her parentage and where she comes from and how she defines herself is once again tossed into turmoil.

So Waverly just has a huge journey of self-discovery this year and its so delicious to watch.

Shes such a star.

Will we get more of Nicole this season?

Is she officially a part of the team?You definitely get her more than a bit.

I think shes in almost every single episode.

Kat Barrell is incredible.

She was such a breakout star for us and she does some really great stuff this year.

Shes a very talented comedienne so she did some really funny stuff for us.

So thats pretty good.

Shes definitely part of the team.

She brings a really interesting dynamic.

So you will definitely have a lot more Nicole Haught on screen this year.

Whats going on with Dolls?

How is he faring with the Black Badge?Hes not doing super duper.

Wherever Dolls is going, the clock is ticking.

Also, he doesnt have whatever his medicine is.

Weve seen that he needs to take these drugs to maintain his human form.

I very highly doubt that when you get arrested they bring you your delicious syringe of demon drugs.

Theyre not on very many maps.

So our team is really under the gun.

If they want to rescue Dolls theyll have to do it very quickly.

And how about Doc?

Last season was kind of him facing his demons.

Whats up for him now?Doc was so delicious last year.

He was really driven by one thing, and one thing only: vengeance.

So Doc is really going to be looking for a reason to be sticking around the Ghost River triangle.

At the same time, hes still Doc Holiday!

Not everything he does is selfless.

Sometimes hes a very selfish, narcissistic guy and makes choices based on his own needs and wants.

A lot of things in the first couple of episodes in which his reasoning may be ambiguous or shaded.

So its going to be fun just to figure out what hes up to initially.

Are there any new characters that youre going to be introducing this season?Yes!

And of course, we have some really fun and unexpected villains turning up.

Maybe some of them are female, which is a bit of a twist this year.

Its a pretty rocketing ride, so hang on!

How do you approach crafting your villains for this show?

Are you thinking about whether you need a more supernatural villain versus a human one?

How are you judging that?It depends.

So I like that combination.

Just because youre a supernatural creature doesnt necessarily mean youre evil.

Wynonna Earpseason 2 premieres Friday at 10 p.m.
