Prerequisite: Three Queens and Mother
Imagine this: three longtime best friends, Bunny (Nathan Lane), Jerry (Matt Bomer), and Arthur (Nathan Lee Graham) – decide to live a golden year under one Palm Springs roof after dying in the circle.
The elevator pitch may have been “Gay Golden Girls” in the past, but the creators quickly became clear in our interview. It’s not a remake. It’s a reinvention. “The Gay Golden Girls were shorthand,” Cohan said.
“Well, there’s a group of people here, and they shared a house on Fire Island a few years ago, but now they’re dead, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, that’s like a gay golden girl got it.
Cast: Theatre royals with comedy chemistry
As Mutchnick explained, the magic was lit the moment the trio shared the screen. “You knew it was working when those three were together in that three-way conversation, he said.
“I mean, Linda was this incredible spice we love and miss, but the fact that the alchemy of these three actors creates that friendship was amazing, and that’s when we knew.
Nathan Lee Graham, who plays Chic and brain Arthur, added that the background of their shared theatrical play eased the onset vibe. “When you come from the theatre, certain things are implicit,” he told us. “The chemistry was just there. It’s not happening all the time, so I’m very fortunate to have it.”
Arthur Bruthard: Whole Humans (Taste better than you)
For Graham, stepping into Arthur felt like a dream. “I didn’t have to perfect my character, so this is good to have a black queer character, Arthur Brussard. I can step into him and start playing,” he said. “I think people think it’s refreshing because he’s a whole human.”
Although Graham didn’t pick just one of his favorite lines (he was too busy laughing at his co-stars by repeating “he? she? she?” on set), he promised that Arthur’s dialogue was “already classic.”
Legends respected by love
Bringing unforgettable warmth and evil wit to Sybil, Linda Rabin tragically passed away in December, completing three-quarters of the season. Her final episode is handled with extraordinary care by the writers, cast and crew, and culminates in a homage entitled “Mr. Schneiderman Here.” It’s a beautiful, calm and deep emotional episode that honors Rabin’s legacy with both laughter and respect.
Graham recalls filming the tribute. “We wanted to come in, bring in the A-Game and celebrate the incredible artist that is Linda Rabin,” he said. “This is one of the best TV episodes I’ve ever done.
Zingers, Birkins, Game of Thrones
And if you’re wondering about Zinger? Ah honey. They are infinite. One line already causing waves? Deadpan delivery from Rabin’s Sibil: “As my mother had said before, time is pussy.” Expect a T-shirt by the weekend.
“The pilot has a line that really made me laugh,” shared Nathan Lane. “Bunny on a date, “Don’t get me wrong, you can take me to the wall like a starfish and ship me off like an actress in the background game of thronesBut it will take a while before I can see my stomach. ”
Graham also shared his current favorites. “There are moments in the tribute episode that may give you something great from Sybil.
So should you look?
If you’ve ever wanted a show that feels like a vintage cocktail party hosted by your funny gay uncle, press a little emotional depth between the one-liners –Mid-century modern It’s your new obsession. It’s resourceful, warm and very memeable.
In Graham’s words, “We are just going through a grand old days, and we hope that people will feel seen and represented.”
