For me on TV with these folks - Check out the episode ‘Benefit of the Doubt’, now streaming on NBC’s site and Peacock:

These two fine gentlemen were extremely welcoming and so easy to work with. I know that’s not a given, and I appreciate all they did to make my job way easier.
Another thing that made it easier was that the director was this guy - Carl Weathers.
Directors who are actors have a shorthand that makes it very easy to understand what you need to do to make the scene work. Each setup required a few sage words from this dude, resulting in a couple takes each go.
Overall the amazing machine that is this show was somewhat demanding, but so is my teacher (Amy Lyndon), so it didn’t feel like a stretch, just more work.
Practice how you’re gonna play.
