This was one of those weeks where the mornings were early and the days were long, but they were beyond amazing. Off Campus is out and thank you @belmontcameli for having me along for the ride. As far as I’m concerned, you’re a national treasure. 💥

JR: So let’s dive right in! What initially attracted you to join the cast of 9-1-1: Nashville?
JC: Originally, the hot take was the Ryan Murphy of it all. That, as well as it not being very often that you get to sort of know that something’s been tested and liked. Normally you are starting from scratch and you hope it works. But with it being a franchise and knowing how passionate people were about the original 9-11 and then Lonestar, it was kind of comforting to join something where the water is warm, that people are interested in this and we had the opportunity to create something new, but in a world that we know seems to work.
JR: I have to say the whole 9-1-1: Nashville franchise is very cool. It’s like every single episode takes you somewhere in terms of the suspense & drama. I think it’s super fun, I love it, It’s one of the best things on TV. A total escape.
JC: I think we are living in a time where that is being very well received. I think like anything, not to be a total movie/theater/stage nerd, that we move through times where different things hit in more successful ways. I think right now, for many reasons, we are living in a time where the hyper real is comforting because like you said, it’s just such an escape. So watching the episodes, they are so hyper real, but they all are grounded in some original and real story but made TV-worthy I guess. (laughs) But it’s like these have happened, but you just can’t believe it.

One of my favorite things in my office is a Comeback mug that Lisa gave me just before the premiere of season two. Hmmm…was that 2014?
Before I started working with Lisa…I, of course, was a Comeback fan. Oh, @jerrysharell I still have your first season DVD set. Oops…! ;-)
Tonight is the season (and series) finale for The Comeback. I’m not gonna lie, it’s been fun over the last year hearing snippets of how Lisa and Michael Patrick King fleshed out, crafted together and wrote this third season of Valerie Cherish’s world.
Though I just follow Lisa around with a powder puff…I get to feel (in a tiny way) part of it. Tune in tonight…one last Hello, hello, hello.
Valerie Cherish forever 🤍
