literally the best paring for this actors on actors in YEARS.

It's too bad Schitt's Creek is over, because I can see Kieran Culkin as a long lost little brother of Rolland. Perfectly.

I love that Kieran is honest enough to basically be like "during season 1 I thought the show was cool and I was doing my job but I didn't care about those characters" because tbh I felt that way as well. I thought the show was well written, well acted but I kept thinking "these people are all assholes and I do not care what happens to them". And he's right: it all changed and something clicked during the 2nd season. They're still assholes but I CARE about those assholes now. This show became one of my favorites and I'm excited for season 3. Tell me what you think !

Wealth consultant is basically what David's ideal job would be

Catherine O’Hara’s TV son and movie nephew. Great pair!

i love the single string of christmas lights lying on the floor in the background

Watching Kieran take in information and smile and laugh and respond is so beautiful to me. He's just one of the most mesmerizing humans in the world.

Dan is literally the most beautiful person

Dan’s experience as an interviewer allowed us to reap the benefits in this conversation. ❤️ love him

Kieran just swigging his beer like this is a casual unrecorded catch-up

Something happened in episode 1x05 : Kendall's failed coup. This is when I got hooked, this is when it was it for me, I knew this had the potential to be not fun but huge, truly shakespearian.

I love how kind and genuinely interested they are with each other. I would love this become a friendship and to see them working together someday.

Schitt’s Creek and Succession are two of the best shows and Kieran is one of my favorite actors so this was a real treat!

That scene where Roman picks up Kendall at the drug house was so natural and great. It did feel like he was meeting new people. This explains why.

I could listen to Dan talk for hours. He has great insight.

And now both of their shows won Best Series Emmys for their categories!! Massive congrats and well deserved.

I love that Kieran got to work with Catherine O'Hara and Dan did too...great connection!

Listening to Dan describe how the networks gave the thumbs up to nearly unlimited seasons, I understand now why the quality of Schitt’s Creek stayed so high. It was the rare show that got better as it got older.

I’ve never liked a show as much as Schitt’s Creek. I’ve never felt as safe as when I’m in its world. I’ve never known love as free to grow as when I’m watching it. It’s not been an easy few months for any of us, but knowing that it will always be there for us makes everything ok. Thanks to Dan, Eugene and all the cast, crew and writers for creating this perfect gem of a show that has shown us how beautiful the world could be. We will forever be indebted to them for the joy they have given us in 22 minute segments Dan will never truly understand what he has given us or how much his beautiful creation has meant to us.

Not only do I love Actors on Actors interviews because you have two people who are in the same craft discussing their craft...... But I could honestly listen to anything Daniel Levy talk about anything. As an actor or creator level, he's got so much deptg. He's already changed TV. He's going to continue this for a very very long time.

I always say that Succession is evil Schitt's Creek so this is perfect

I completely agree with Kieran about the show, initially. It took me 3 attempts to get passed the first episode to fully care about these people.

I love hearing Dan talk about Catherine and Eugene. I think those two should teach a masterclass virtually!

The reason I started watching Succession was Kieran, and I've been well rewarded. The show was great, but usually I don't watch things where all the characters are that awful. Kieran gave Roman such depth and pathos, just as he did with Igby. I, too, can't count how many times I've see that brilliant little film. It so perfectly captures that world-class world I know too well and loathe. And Dan is so very funny and smart. Lots of IQ in this one!

I hate to break everyones bubble, but, these two are the most, experienced actors and it has been an honor listening to this conversation, like a weird bystander,thanks guys.

Dan’s hair and eyebrows give me life, such a good looking man. Kieran is so funny and I love him!

I felt proud to be a procrastinator when Keiran said he was glad he didn’t do his research ✊😂 But seriously, I did love how genuine and in the moment Keiran was when listening to Dan 😊 nice to see

Dan you were AMAZING as a host!! I remember watching you and seeing your charisma and thinking - “That guy is special. He’s gonna be big.” And I’m so impressed with my foresight and proud of all you’ve done with Schitt’s Creek putting Canadian comedy back on the map. Thank you.

Dan Levy might be the best interviewer! He's just a likeable.

Kieran seems like a fun guy

I needed this to go on longer

they're both so cool ♡ ♡ loved this

I love the interest they show in each other’s shows and the processes. These guys are great, so much respect for each other’s craft. Both so cute and funny. I could watch them chat all day! I love how humble Dan is about the success of his show. I hope they both have long and successful careers🤩

Two talented actors-would love to see them in a show together feeding off each other’s energy.

I love how Catherine O'Hara played Dan's mom on Schitt's Creek and also Macauley's mom in Home Alone...and of course, Kieran was in Home Alone as well playing one of the cousins.

Really enjoyed their conversation. Catherine O'Hara is so humble too about her talent. Love the arc of her and Eugene Levy's onscreen chemistry and actual friendship.

so interesting to hear about Dan's experience putting together a show in high school and doing all the things. And here he is as an adult doing all the things. it also reminds me of an interview with Alan Thicke, another Canadian actor, who talked about how Americans were surprised at the breadth of his skill set, but he said that it was from his experience working on low budget Canadian productions where you got to step in and do stuff because there was no one else to do it.

I've loved Kieran since Igby and am overjoyed by his current success 💗💗💗💗

succession is such an amazing show, and to hear kieran talk about it is really great because there's not too much stuff about the behind the scenes!!

This was a wonderful Actors on Actors. Both were excellent. The shows are so different, yet this was so much fun and informative.

I want both of you in one show ! Please !!

I never finished any variety actors on actors conversations, just lost interest after 10’, except this one! The conversations just captivating, between ‘socially anxious’ Dan Levy, and ‘carefree happy go lucky’ Kieran Culkin, somehow it’s interesting to watch.

And he did; he made The Big Brunch and helped employ people after the pandemic. Incredible duo! ❤

The funniest, most interesting and most genuine Actors on Actors I've watched.

I like how down-to-earth these guys are

One of the best episodes of Actors on Actors I’ve seen!

My feeling when I saw this was exactly how you feel when your crush texts you first... best shows and best pairing❤️

Love both of these actors...rare gems!

Honestly two of my faves, they are both brilliant 💜💜

wallace and david are two of my favorite characters of all time

I love these two, such opposite ends of the cinematic scale.

I am just SO EXCITED to start watching this. i love them both soooooo much

This is a dream interview. Love both Dan and Kieran. 😘

These are, hands down, 2 of my fave actors in the last few years!!! i LOVED this, & it was honest! I immediately loved both shows, but I had to start rooting for the characters in Succession & Roman is always always my favourite. There isnt a character I can pinpoint as my fave on Schitt’s Creek because I truly love them all! My son calls me Moira a lot because of my “dramatics” & linguistics lol! It’s only a compliment to me. And Succession I can’t get enough of, it’s bloody brilliant & I cant get enough of it!!! 🖤👏🖤👏🖤👏🖤

Love both these guys, their shows, their skill and their faces 🥰🥰

That was wonderful. Thank you gents and thank you Variety

Two absolute legends

This was a wonderful interview, enjoyed both of you guys immensely. Rock on.

I didn't know Kieran before but I'm gonna have to check out Succession after this. Great talk!

This was such an unexpected combination but I enjoyed it so much

Love this. “ I care about these people and I don’t know why”...exactly how I feel! And Dan Levy...an absolute icon to me...love him & Schitts Creek Love from Canada 🇨🇦

Love both shows and these two have a very good vibe, maybe in the future, they can collaborate. Kieran is so amazing in Succession ... and Daniel is very talented, can't wait for his next project

Dan is brilliant and so insightful.

Love them both. Such good humans and really interesting actors.

Such a great conversation

I loooooved hearing these two!

Two of my favorite people

Such a great conversation!

Dan Levy saw you in Happiest Season and you were so amazing. Loved, loved you. You outshone the others. I laughed at your lines every time you spoke.(Leaving the animals to your therapist to look after and the poor fish.) I wanted to see more of you in an ensemble like Schitts Creek but big screen stuff.

Kieran you are GIFTED in this role. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I respect Dan even more after this interview. His questions are insightful and you can tell he did his research.

Wow, their chemistry was amazing. Super interesting conversation and such great company :-)

Thank you so much for this heart warming conversation! God bless you! Love you! Namaste!

My two FAVORITE shows EVER!!

Best comedy and best drama at the 2020 emmys! Outstanding pair!!

Love both these guys SO much Just recently binged both their shows and those plus Barry on HBO were the best TV I've seen all year, and I've watched lots of TV this year lol. P.S. omg Kieran has a pillow with a pic of a kitten on it. Amazing lol.

I truly loathe all the characters, but am obsessed with this show LOL. The acting is phenomenal!

I wanted more than 70 minutes of this

Thanks Kieran I am one of the few who know nothing about SC. So I can appreciate the question. I need to get into it bc I hear it's Gold!!

I still find Kieran Culkin attractive, even post Scott Pilgrim lol

Kieran‘s beard is cuute！

Agree with Kieran ~ I love the show but the first few episodes were a slow burn before you were truly invested.... fast forward I’m totally in😊

They are both very talented , in similar ways. Their respective shows , couldn't be more different & entertaining. I have always liked K.C. work & man getting to know D.L. work better , great interview from both ... 😉💜💙📷🎥📹💻📹📢🎬

Succession is one of my favorites and Schitt's too:) 2 of the best shows:)

Dan should have a masterclass! To get insights from many different angles of making a show

Roman is my favorite character on the show. So complex. Kieran is amazing.

how in the world did I miss this interview? My two favourite shows collide with these two beauts. Thanks :) I wanna hang with them lol

Now I am thinking how Succession would be with David and how Schitt's Creek would be with Roman.

Love you both!! Succession so good and you in it !!

Kieran looks great with a beard, he should keep it!

This interview is so illuminating, I am absolutely fascinated. There are certain things that someone not familiar with the industry wouldn't think to ask (as a fan at a convention, I sometimes struggle to think about an interesting question that doesn't dive too deep into the minutiae of a show that the actors were finished with several months, if not years ago) and certain things that an actor would answer another actor more honestly. (though I really had to sideeye Culkin for his admission that he casually tells raunchy jokes and gropes his female acting partner WITHOUT clearing it with her beforehand - that slides into harassment territory really fast).

I love dan's shirt

this is perfect.

I love Kieran. 🥺

I may be a lotta bit in love with Dan 🤭. 😍

HERE WE GO.

I love this exhange

to me almost everyone casted on Succession WAS their character (I feel that way about Dan Levy too) so the acting felt like…them. That being said, the writing for both shows, including Dan’s writing, is INSANE.

I love both shows and both actors but I was sort of disappointed that Kieran didn't do his homework. Would have done more service to Dan.

so glad Dan asked about Roman and Gerri lmao god that show is so great and weird
