I've been working some really long hours for the last five or six years. Anybody who works on series television knows, and especially women because women spend probably two hours more than the guys with all their hair and makeup crap. ↗

If you watch the show and the characters don't look at each other while they're talking, the actors probably aren't getting along. ↗
