I feel so connected to Sam and when she grows, I feel like I grow too.
And growth is change, and thats overwhelming for Sam and for the woman who plays her.
Somebody Somewhereis unlike most shows on TV.
Theres no mystery-box plot devices or dystopian nightmares or wild spectacle.
Sam is wrestling with loneliness and where she fits into the lives of her busy, coupled-up friends.
Everett says it was a happy accident.
The other dog wasnt really doing what we needed it to do, she says.
She explains, Lulu is a very spirited young lady and likes to talk to everyone she meets.
Lulu is a world-class beauty, and nobodys ever going to believe that shes a rescue.
She is a rescue.
If there was no Poppy, there would be noSomebody Somewhere.
Im telling you that right now.
I keep thinking, how the fuck do we have three seasons of this show on the air?
