That would be an amazing therapy arc. Norman is so funny and it could go in some interesting territory.

That's a weird thing to say. If it were that way no one would notice the interviewer. But I notice her off-pace all the time. Don't get me wrong... I'm already jealous of the composure she exercises and her daring to really react to responses... I wish I could do that in any situation. But there's still cutting-off-answers going on, for example. When Margulies talks about modern life's digital connectivity (~kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a610qdR8zNq2d4k.htmlm30s) ... it seems Villarreal either does not know how to reply or had sort of pre-scheduled a new question to be there now... either way... it's feels very much like a cutting off. And I don't care if it was on purpose or not. It shouldn't have happened. It messes with the flow, inhibits possible awesome replies. A good round-table interview is (if it has to be one:) a power play that isn't experienced as such. But here... I'm aware all the time of the central player. Puts me off. Don't want to know that she's there. Just want to love her questions. Did not get the chance to have that. So I disagree, especially with the "sensitive"/"adapting" compliment.

MsESilverFox I have to respectfully agree with Marianne Jaffke . I think the interviewer should be invisible, and only push discussion when needed. I have loved other round tables they've done, but I was almost done after the first damn question when she answered her own question with "overwhelmed" and expressed her issue with massive amounts of television, when the rest were discussing the topic of the evolution of TV. All positive answers about one subject, and she gives a negative answer about a different subject... She's there to lead the discussion, not participate.

Shepsus I have to agree with this, the interview was just straight up uncomfortable and "not good" from the get-go. I'm not even 10 minutes in, skipping through and its quite unbearable. This interviewer is trying to be a stand-up comedian kind-of playing with the audience, rather than an actual goddam interviewer. I'd rather they'd place the questions on a piece of paper and let the actors discuss them together without the interviewer. I'm going at length about this because these are some goddam fine fucking actors and I love their work and the parts they play. The interviewer seemed to just waste their air...

Shepsus exactly we want to here the opinions of actors not the moron interviewing them. You are right after the first question, Its frustrating that i just don't want to watch this because of the weird feeling of disorganized interview. however, i still want to know what these guys have to say.

No idea what you're talking about. I guess maybe if you watched it in full instead of skipping through...

Best character ever!

The Hollywood Reporter roundtable that actually had Vera and Julianne again at the same table along with 3-4 other actresses was far better. I think there was also Claire Danes, Jessica Pare, Sarah Paulson, and Keri Russell - makes for a pretty darn talented and not too shabby looking table I must say.

popeye697 - Schreiber should do a one-man burlesque show.

I would also prefer them talking about their techniques and struggles, rather than their fictitious characters. I'm only 15 minutes in and had to pause it to check the Commenter's reviews.

Sam Walters what'd she do that was so unimpressive other than ask questions and let them speak?!

MrBigturboweenie I agree. I was really happy with not only the questions she asked, but also how comfortable she seemed asking them. I can't understand why people are complaining.

Maybe if she could learn how to speak without inserting the word "like" into her phrases every 30 seconds, she would sound more intelligent.

BadassRandomness They probably don't see TWD as something with quality just because it's a zombie show. They are so wrong, we as public know that at least.

Suzanne Niemeijer Yeah, it annoys me... It seems like the others think they are better than him and TWD...

Yup, while TWD is laughing because they have the most viewers. ;) I don't watch the other shows because it's all so normal. The only thing I am interested in at this table is Mad Men and Bates hotel. But TWD is just so totally different which makes it a million times better because they are on top with something which was always seen as bad horror movie monster, and they can make it on top in the drama category while also have the most exciting action and horror. It's the best of both worlds and everyone is watching for something different. I like the gore but love the interaction of humans who change in such a situation.

Suzanne Niemeijer Yeah, the only reason I watched this roundtable was because of Reedus. I love TWD, one of my favorite series at the moment, and of all time too

Yes, I've always bounced from favorite TV show every month or so and was never interested in the zombie genre. Then I decided to give it a shot and it's been my favorite since then and that was 2,5 years ago. I also only watched this because of Norman.

Yeah I get this sinking feeling that he isn't too different from his character... maybe things hit too close to home.

YayaJada I heard he was in rehab recently, and then was not surprised to read he had a pretty sad childhood. Probably explains his detached/distant demeanor, and he doesn't even seem to try to fake being happy.

Yeah I read that too. That's what makes me think of him that way. I mean, it's an easy assumption to make- really too easy given his childhood. I wonder if he had reservations about the role... it really was a dangerous risk for him to take by playing this part. He does it well, but at what cost? Jay Brown​

Yeah and the fame/money must provide temptations that a normal job wouldn't. I wonder if Mad Men ending will be a good or bad thing for him emotionally, if the career opportunities don't come. It's a shame he wasn't allowed to do Gone Girl.

Was this around the time he went into treatment?

Go watch him in "Floating" and you'll see why.

+Rachel Bruce Don't argue with her. She is always commenting on Walking Dead stuff and saying it's bad... apparently nothing better to do then watch something she hates.

Suzanne Niemeijer im a big fan of TWD both comic and show but Norman Reedus is just not so good at acting thats it

norman is very talented gtfo

I agree. Andrew Lincoln should've been there instead.

Theresa Castillo He is not as articulate as the other actors and I often thought "where is he going with this?" but in the end he always made a valid point.

GooferDusty I find a LOT of actors are mush-mouths and it really makes me appreciate the writers so much more.

+Theresa Castillo Plus he has horrible hair. What is it with that hairdo?

he's got a beautiful way about him, maybe your mistaking uniqueness for in eloquence.

Yeah I've only just started watching and I'll be surprised if any of the actors bring up the fact that they're all white.
