Lub sijhawm Tom Qab, kev tua neeg paub tsis meej comedy hais txog kev sib sau ua ke hauv tsev kawm theem siab, yog lwm qhov plaub hauv nws lub kaus mom ntawm kev lom zem. Txhua ntu muaj qhov tshwj xeeb style thiab tshuaj xyuas cov xwm txheej hmo ntuj los ntawm tus cwj pwm txawv qhov kev xav.

Simon Thompson: XNUMX Lab tus kiv cua tos koj rau Webtalk! Lub sijhawm Tom Qab's ensemble cast yog thawj chav kawm. Koj puas paub tias leej twg tau nyob hauv lub nkoj thaum koj kos npe rau?

Sam Richardson: Kuv tuaj thaum ntxov tab sis tsis ntxov hauv lub xeeb ceem. Lub sijhawm Tom Qab yog ib lub tswv yim tias Chris Miller muaj kaum xyoo dhau los thiab thaum xub thawj, nws yog ib zaj yeeb yaj kiab, thiab tom qab ntawd nws tau los ua yeeb yam. Thaum kuv tau koom nrog, kuv paub tias Ike Barinholtz yuav nyob hauv nws, thiab Ben Schwartz yuav yog. Lub cam khwb cia pib sau, thiab nrog txhua lub npe uas kuv yuav hnov, kuv zoo li, 'Au, uas yog ci ntsa iab.' Tag nrho cov neeg no kuv nyiam hauv txhua qhov kev ua yeeb yam uas lawv tau muab tau hais tias yog, cov neeg zoo li Jamie Demetriou, uas kuv hlub hauv Stath Lets Flats. Kev paub nws thiab ua haujlwm nrog thiab tawm ntawm nws yog npau suav. Pun npaj vim kuv tsis tuaj yeem dag thiab hais tias qhov no tsis yog pun, tab sis qhov no yog ib tus neeg tua neeg ntawm cov neeg ua yeeb yam thiab cov neeg ua yeeb yam.

Thompson: Kuv yuav tuag kom paub tias koj nrhiav tau li cas Stath Lets Flats.

Richardson: Kuv nyiam British comedy. Puas Yog Koj Ua Haujlwm yog ib qho yeeb yam uas kuv loj hlob tuaj saib. Kuv txiv hlub Puas Yog Koj Ua Haujlwm thiab Khaws Kom Zoo. Kuv saib tag nrho cov load Txiv Yawg Ted thiab tom qab ntawd Kuv Tus Hero vim kuv hlub Ardal O'Hanlon. Paub qhov nrov Stath Lets Flats yog, tsis muaj txoj hauv kev uas kuv yuav nco nws, thiab tom qab ntawd saib nws, Kuv zoo li, 'Au, qhov no tsuas yog kev txawj ntse xwb.' Kuv zoo siab heev los ua haujlwm nrog Jamie.

Thompson: Lub sijhawm Tom Qab tau teeb tsa hauv tsev kawm ntawv theem siab, yog li tau txais cov chemistry thiab dynamic txoj cai yog qhov tseem ceeb. Muaj pes tsawg leej ntawm nej twb paub lawm? Koj puas tseem muaj qhov ua haujlwm nrog?

Richardson: Peb tsis muaj sijhawm ntau los ua haujlwm ntawm chemistry ntawm peb. Kuv paub Ilana Glazer thiab Ike me ntsis, tab sis kuv nyuam qhuav paub Ben, thiab kuv tsis tau ntsib Zoë Chao. Kuv paub John ntxov, thiab kuv paub Tiffany zoo. Txhua yam tshwm sim ntawm qhov siab ntawm kev sib kis. Peb tau pib qhov yeeb yam no thaum lub Cuaj Hlis lossis Lub Kaum Hli 2020, yog li peb tau kaw tag nrho. Peb tsis tau muaj lub rooj nyeem ntawm tus neeg, txhua yam uas nyob hauv Zoom. Kev teeb tsa thawj zaug yog qhov uas peb pom peb qhov sib tw rau ib leeg ntau zaus. Txhua leej txhua tus yog ib tug neeg ua yeeb yam ci ntsa iab, thiab yog li tus phooj ywg thiab tus kheej uas kev phooj ywg thiab kev sib raug zoo tuaj sai. Tsis tas li ntawd, peb zoo siab heev uas pom lwm tus tshaj li sab hauv ntawm peb lub tsev ua rau peb tshaib plab heev rau kev phooj ywg uas yog qhov txiaj ntsig ntawm kev ua yeeb yam.

Thompson: Nws yog funny los tham txog Jamie. Peb yog neeg Askiv, yog li peb tau loj hlob nyob rau hauv qhov chaw sib txawv heev thaum nws los txog rau tej yam xws li kev sib tham hauv tsev kawm theem siab, thiab muaj qee yam hauv qhov no uas yog neeg txawv teb chaws rau nws. Nws puas tau nrog koj tham txog qhov ntawd? Koj puas tau muab 101 rau nws hauv high school lub neej?

Richardson: Yog, thiab tseem, nws ua rau nws txias heev los saib nws kev txhais ntawm lub tsev kawm ntawv theem siab lossis yog raws li cov yeeb yaj kiab thiab cov khoom. Kuv tau mus rau ib tug tub hluas Catholic high school, tab sis ua ntej ntawd, kuv mus rau ib tug me me Quaker theem pib thiab theem nrab, yog li ntawd kuv kuj muaj cov npau suav ntawm lub tsev kawm ntawv theem siab yuav ua li cas. Nws xaus tsis sib xws, yog li nws lom zem ua lub tsev kawm ntawv theem siab uas koj tab tom ua si cov stereotypes ntawm nws me ntsis. Nrog Jamie, nws tab tom los ntawm kev tawm ntawm qhov kev paub no. Nws kuj tseem ua si Walt, uas, raws li tus cwj pwm, yog ob peb theem tawm ntawm qhov kev paub dhau los. Nws tsis koom nrog. Nws nyob sab nraud saib nyob rau hauv, mus rau ib tug degree, tab sis xav desperately mus nyob rau hauv. Kuv xav tias ntxiv ib theem ntawm malapropism rau nws tus cwj pwm.

Thompson: Koj puas tau mus rau kev sib tham hauv tsev kawm theem siab?

Richardson: Kuv tsis muaj, thiab kuv xav ua siab ncaj vim kuv nyiam txhua tus uas kuv tau mus kawm high school nrog. Kuv muaj sijhawm zoo hauv tsev kawm ntawv theem siab, tab sis kuv ib txwm ua haujlwm, yog li kuv nco lawv. Xyoo no yuav yog kuv lub tsev kawm ntawv theem siab 20, txawm tias kuv xav tias nws yuav tsis tshwm sim, thiab qhov ntawd yog qhov tsis zoo.

Thompson: Koj zoo li cas hauv tsev kawm ntawv theem siab?

Richardson: Kuv txias txias. Kuv tau ua yeeb yam ntau, tab sis kuv kuj tau sib cav thiab ua Model UN. Kuv ua si ncaws pob rau ib feeb. Kuv muab txhaj rau ib feeb. Kuv tau ua ntau yam. Kuv nyob hauv pawg hu nkauj liturgical thiab ua yeeb yam hu nkauj. Kuv tau ua ntau yam. Kuv nyob ntawm Student Council, tab sis kuv kuj yog ib tug tub kawm ntawv phem heev. Kuv yuav tsis ua homework ib zaug li. (Luag) Kuv tau ua ntau yam ntxiv.

Thompson: Koj muaj peev xwm xaiv tej yaam num uas dhau los ua cov haujlwm zoo heev. Koj tau ua Veep, Detroiters, thiab tsis ntev los no nyob rau hauv Werewolves Tsis pub dhau thiab Ted lasso. Dab tsi yog qhov kev ntsuas sniff uas pab koj paub tias qee yam zoo?

Richardson: Muaj ob yam. Kuv muaj kev cia siab thaum kuv nyeem ib yam dab tsi. Kuv zoo li, 'Auj, qhov ntawd tuaj yeem ua tau zoo heev.' Kuv yuav tsum txwv kuv tus kheej kom tsis txhob ua qhov ntawd nrog txhua yam kuv nyeem. Kuv pheej nug kuv tus kheej. Thaum kuv nyeem tsab ntawv, kuv xav kom paub tseeb tias kuv luag los yog txaus siab rau txhua yam, thiab kuv yuav tsum xyuas kom meej tias kuv tsis nyiam ib yam ntawm nws. Kuv yuav tsum paub tseeb tias kuv nyiam ntau yam. Yog tias koj tsis ua li ntawd, koj dag koj tus kheej, thiab tom qab ntawd koj nyob hauv lub lauj kaub ntawm doo-doo.

Thompson: Kuv kov rau Ted lasso. Peb puas yuav pom koj tus cwj pwm rov qab los? Nws yeej ua rau muaj kev cuam tshuam.

Richardson: Kuv tsis paub, tab sis kuv vam tias yog li ntawd. Vam tias kuv yuav paub sai sai no. Edwin Akufo poob rau hauv qhov ntawd txhua qhov ntxim nyiam thiab glitz thiab tom qab ntawd tawm tag nrho cov xob quaj thiab sh * ts. Nws yeej yog tus ua yeeb yam lom zem ua si thiab lub ntiaj teb lom zem ua si. Jason Sudeikis thiab kuv tau ua phooj ywg tau ntev, thiab tib yam nrog Brendan Hunt thiab Joe Kelly. Joe thiab kuv tsim Detroiters ua ke, yog li yeej muaj tsev neeg kev sib raug zoo nyob rau ntawd. Thaum twg lawv hu kuv, kuv yuav tshwm sim, thiab kuv yuav ua txhua yam lawv xav tau.
