HOW YOU CAN PROTECT YOUR
MASTERPIECE, TOMORROW AT 10:30
A.M.
>> Tati: WHO IS READY FOR THIS.
THE WAIT IS OVER, EVERYONE.
"THIS IS US" IS BACK TOMORROW
NIGHT FOR THE TWO-HOUR PREMIER
OF SEASON 5 AND WE’VE GOT SOME
QUESTIONS.
SO LET’S GET SOME ANSWERS FROM
ONE OF THE STARS OF THE SHOW,
ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS,
CHRISSY METZ WHO JOINS US NOW.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING WITH
US!
>> HI!
>> Tati: I’M SURE YOU CAN HEAR
MY EXCITEMENT.
SO WE’LL GET RIGHT INTO IT.
WE LEFT SEASON 4 WITH A LOT OF
TURMOIL.
WE HAD RANDALL AND KEVIN HAVING
HUGE FALLING-OUT.
WHAT’S GONNA HAPPEN WITH KATE
AND TOBY, THE BABY.
WHERE WILL THINGS PICK UP
TOMORROW NIGHT?
>> RIGHT WHERE THEY LEFT OFF,
FOR SURE.
WE’LL GET TO SEE, YOU KNOW, DO
RANDALL AND KEVIN ACTUALLY
APOLOGIZE AND MAKE UP OR WILL IT
LAST SOME TIME?
KATE DOES TELL ONE OF THE GUYS
TO GET TOGETHER AND FIGURE IT
OUT.
SO LET’S SEE IF THEY DO.
>> Tati: HOW DO YOU INCORPORATE
THE CURRENT PANDEMIC INTO THE
SHOW?
>> DNA AND THE WRITERS ROOM HAVE
REALLY TAKEN TO HEART EXACTLY
WHAT’S GOING ON IN THE WORLD,
AND THEY’RE NOT MINCING ANY
WORDS, AND WE’RE NOT BRUSHING
OVER ANYTHING THAT’S GOING ON,
WHETHER IT’S THE SOCIAL UNREST
AND/OR THE PANDEMIC.
SO, YOU KNOW, I’M SO PROUD TO BE
A PART OF A SHOW THAT TAKES ON
SUCH IMPORTANT ISSUES HEAD-ON.
AND WE ALWAYS HAVE.
SO, YOU KNOW, I’M REALLY EXCITED
ABOUT THIS SEASON AND I THINK
THE PREMIER WILL BE ABSOLUTELY
AMAZING.
IT WILL BE.
SO I’M EXCITED TO SEE WHAT
EVERYONE THINKS.
>> Tati: I’M BIASED BECAUSE I
GET TOGETHER WITH OVER 500
PEOPLE ON OUR SHOW’S FACEBOOK
PAGE AND WATCH IT TOGETHER AND
LIVE CHAT ABOUT IT.
SO CAN YOU GIVE US A SNEAK PEEK
OF SOMETHING GOING ON WITH KATE?
>> YEAH, WELL, WE KNOW THAT SHE
AND TOBY ARE THINKING ABOUT
ADOPTING AND WE DON’T
NECESSARILY KNOW HOW SERIOUS
THEY ARE.
TALK IS CHEAP.
SO WE’LL GET TO SEE IF THAT’S
GONNA BE SOMETHING THEY’RE GONNA
DO, ESPECIALLY THE MIDDLE OF A
PANDEMIC.
SO, THAT’S ALL I CAN TELL YOU.
>> Tati: STEPPING AWAY FROM
"THIS IS US," LET’S TALK ABOUT
YOUR MUSIC.
YOU HAVE A NEW SINGLE CALLED
"TALKING TO GOD" WHICH IS
AMAZING.
TELL US ABOUT IT.
>> YES, SO THAT SONG WAS FOUND
AT McBRIDE’S WRITERS RETREAT.
AND I ALWAYS LIKE TO KNOW WHO IS
WRITING IT AND THEY’RE MY
FRIENDS.
AND I HEARD THIS SONG AND FELL
IN LOVE WITNESS AND FELT LIKE I
COULD RELATE TO IT IN REAL LIFE.
BECAUSE WE HAVE REGRETS ABOUT
THINGS WE DID OR SAID OR DIDN’T
SAY.
AND YOU HAVE A CONSCIOUS CONTACT
WITH WHOMEVER, WHATEVER YOU CALL
GOD.
AND WE’RE PRAYING IN WAYS THAT
WE NEVER HAVE BEFORE BECAUSE
WE’RE LOOKING FOR ANSWERS WE
NEVER NEEDED BEFORE.
SO THE SONG IS TIMELY AND
TIMELESS.
I’M SO GRATEFUL THAT -- IT FELT
REALLY GIFTED TO ME.
>> Tati: I FELT EVERYTHING YOU
JUST DESCRIBED, THAT EVERYONE
WILL BE ABLE TO RELATE TO THIS
SONG.
YOU AND MANDY MOORE BOTH HAVE
PIPES.
CAN THEY WRITE A DUET FOR YOU
TWO ON THE SHOW SOMEHOW?
>> WE GOT TO SING "IRONIC" AND
THAT WAS THE BEGINNING OF OUR
POTENTIAL DUET RELATIONSHIP.
BUT I KNOW PEOPLE ARE REQUESTING
THAT, AND I WOULD LOVE TO DO IT.
SO WE’LL SEE.
I DON’T KNOW, THOUGH.
>> Tati: WE WILL SEE AND I CAN’T
WAIT TO CATCH UP WITH THE SHOW.
THANK YOU FOR TALKING WITH US
TODAY.
WE APPRECIATE YOU.
>> OF COURSE, THANK YOU.
>> Tati: AND YOU KNOW I CAN’T
WAIT FOR THIS.
