So I don't know if you read the book Little Fires Everywhere.

The book is great, and then you optioned it.

Yeah.

You read the book.

Right?

Yeah, yeah.

It's such a good show.

It really-- it reminds--

it brings up a lot of topics.

There's so many things to talk about.

And it's set in the '90s, so you get all these great flashbacks.

Explain what it's about.

So it's in Shaker Heights, Ohio, in 1997.

My character is a mom with four teenage kids.

And then Kerry's character comes to town

and rents an apartment from me, her and her teenage daughter.

Her kid gets involved with my kids.

She starts working in my home.

But it's just this clash of personalities.

And there's nobody better than Kerry Washington,

I have to tell you.

I'm like, so excited that she and I finally

got to work together.

I love her.

And really, it's a great story.

And it's the '90s, so get to dress like the '90s.

Yeah, which is really cool.

And then the costume designer brought in these inspiration

boards.

And I was like, oh, that's cute.

And then I looked over the teenager one

and I was on the teenager board in 19--

because I started being an actress in 1990.

And so I was--

I realized.

And I turned to Kerry and I was like, wait.

I'm-- we're playing our mothers.

[LAUGHTER]

This is weird.

Yeah.

So it was actually kind of cool to call my mom and be like,

oh, what was it like to be a mom in the '90s?

Now do you feel like you're being

a mom, the way you're talking about, when you get your son

to do TikToks with you?

Oh, yeah.

Well, you know, he's taught me a lot.

Well, has he?

My teenager-- he has!

Let's watch the TikTok of you doing The Woah.

OK.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, how did I do?

[LAUGHTER]

How am I doing, tWitch?

How am I doing?

Am I doing OK?

[LAUGHTER]

Eh.

Eh.

I'm getting better.

I've been working on it.

Yeah.

The spirit is fantastic.

[LAUGHTER]

And just your arm placement is a little--

My arm placement's bad?

Arm placement is a little--

Try it right now.

Can you do The Woah?

He's trying to teach me.

You try it right now.

Do you want to throw me The Woah?

Yeah.

I'll throw it to you.

Ready?

OK.

Yeah.

OK.

OK.

Yeah.

All right.

You ready?

I'm ready.

All right Here we go.

Wham.

OK, better.

Better.

[APPLAUSE]

That's not bad.

I did it better?

Yeah.

Your arm placement-- yeah.

There you go.

There you go.

I'm going to throw it to you, The Woah.

OK.

You ready?

Yeah.

Huh.

Wham.

Yay!
