ANIMATION, I’VE GOTTA TELL YOU,

HEARD BEFORE. IT’S ABOUT TOLERANCE.

SOME OF THE OTHER STARS,
INCLUDING YOUR FAVORITE, JESSICA
LANGE, ABOUT THE SERIES.
THIS SHOWS HOW BIG PEOPLE TREAT
THESE THINGS NOWADAYS BECAUSE
YOUR GUY WAS READY TO TAKE ON
THE WORLD.
THE WORLD. >> HE IS.
>> HE IS. HIS AMBITION IS JUST NOTHING IS
NOT WORTH IT FOR HIM.
AND I THINK THE INTERESTING
THING ABOUT THE SHOW IS THAT IT
TAKES YOUNG PEOPLE VERY
SERIOUSLY, PARTICULARLY PEYTON,
MY CHARACTER, AND IT’S
EVERYTHING TO HIM.
>> AND BEST FRIENDS AND THEN YOU
DECIDE TO RUN AGAINST HIM AND IT
CAUSES ALL TYPES OF PROBLEMS,
DOESN’T IT?
DOESN’T IT? >> SHE LOVES TO THROW HIS
BANNERS, ANY DRAMA.
>> AND ALSO FAMILY DRAMA GOING
ON.
ON. >> YES, ALL SORT OF CENTER OF
THE SPOKES IS ALWAYS HIM TRYING
TO GET HIMSELF AHEAD AND
EVERYTHING ELSE IS A DOMINO
EFFECT, WHETHER IT’S HIS MOTHER
OR OBNOXIOUS TWIN BROTHER, HIS
OPPONENT.
OPPONENT. IT’S ALL VERY MUCH WITH A
ONE-TRACK MIND OF BEING
EMPOWERED.
EMPOWERED. >> AND YOU’RE GETTING A LOT OF
FREE TRIPS.
FREE TRIPS. >> THERE’S A LOT OF PERKS IN
THIS RELATIONSHIP FOR ME AND FOR
