Does music help? That depends on how much Mariah you have. Friendship? The company of a dear friend is assured relief probably. Is there a more effective avenue for sheilding our weak minds from the misery of life? Movies are cool, yes. Betty, Dan вЂ¦ Matt put together an amazing, A++ cast.Sports. I wanted to walk like him, I wanted to talk like him, since Bad Boys and Spicoli and everything. And Sean - I tell everyone - I had his poster on my wall, unabashedly. When Liddy came up, she has to give the blessing and she put me front and center. SheвЂ™s a producer, so she puts a lot of things together. One of the characters I love most was in Homecoming. I had worked with both of them before and I would do it over and over again. Yeah, I knew that Julia and Sean were in place. Were you aware of the caliber of talent involved before you signed on? TVLINE | I know you mentioned Julia earlier, but IвЂ™d be remiss if I didnвЂ™t mention that this cast is absolutely stacked. Which, IвЂ™ll just say, it doesnвЂ™t turn out to be that way. ItвЂ™s really two soldiers, and Liddy knows heвЂ™s found someone.вЂќ He thinks heвЂ™s found someone. It was written differently, then at the end of the day I said to Matt, вЂњI think itвЂ™s really simple. thinks heвЂ™s found someone that will go into battle with him.

Where you see someone, and itвЂ™s two animals coming together and going, вЂњIвЂ™ve found the guy.вЂќ I think you feel that in that scene with McCord. I wanted the unspoken-ness to happen there. Matt and I talked a lot about that scene. What can you tease about that relationship? TVLINE | Liddy instantly takes to Chris BauerвЂ™s character, James McCord. ItвЂ™s not just the вЂњcrack heads,вЂќ and вЂњIвЂ™ll do whatever.вЂќ You get to see a human being in there, I hope. So you get to see a different side of him. That insecurity bubbles up, and where does he get the sagest advice from? From his own son, that his teacher told him in school. He hasnвЂ™t felt secure in who he is since he was a baby. John Mitchell laughs him out of the room, which causes him embarrassment because at the root of everything is insecurity. To him, itвЂ™s the smartest thing that anyoneвЂ™s ever come up with. And in that, Gemstone comes out of it, which is Coen brothers/Keystone Cop-esque. For him, anything is OK in the name of the cause, rightly or wrongly, so you have to play that truth. Look, at its base, Liddy just wants to be recognized by the king, by King Richard, by the president. ItвЂ™s amoral to whom? To him, anything is justified in the name of the cause. How does this guyвЂ™s unique belief system propel him forward? TVLINE | He seems to abide by his own strange amoral code. YouвЂ™ve got to find something real and play the truth in order for where we take Liddy in Episodes 7 and 8 to land. IвЂ™m not big on talking about that aspect of it because I donвЂ™t want people to watch the character and go, вЂњOh, he did this and that to get in,вЂќ but there was a lot that went into this, months ahead of time, to try and find the man, so that from there, all the insanity can ensue. With every role I take on, thereвЂ™s tremendous amounts of research. TVLINE | What else did you do to prepare to step into his shoes? And when everyone else was jumping ship, he didnвЂ™t do it! I was also really taken with how he talks about his five kids and Frances, and how they met and his first dates with her. And I, like you, could probably respect that. He was the only one who didnвЂ™t name names. How am I going to first approach him to play him? It was like, вЂњIs there anything honorable?вЂќ and there was. I wanted to see if there was anything I could hang my hat on. I knew the flame, the rats, the talk radio showвЂ¦ I knew a little bit, but I wanted to find the human being in there. I told Matt that I wanted to make sure we do him justice. TVLINE | Liddy is quite the character! What aspects of this guy appealed to you? When they offered me Liddy, I had a little bit of pause knowing how tough it was going to be to take on, but then I jumped at the chance. Getting a chance to work with Julia again, IвЂ™ll take that any day of the week. SHEA WHIGHAM | It starts with Julia Roberts, obviously. What was it about this iteration that grabbed you? TVLINE | The Watergate story is such a well-known and documented tale in American history.
