We're here tonight at the Hollywood Reporter and SAG's Emmys party.
00:03
Who's somebody you'd love to maybe bump into at one of these parties this weekend
00:06
that you haven't maybe gotten the chance to meet yet?
00:09
I mean, this is it right here. This is the dynamic duo.
00:13
Every party where the party's shaking our asses, to quote Chaperone.
00:17
Is Chaperone here? That's who I'd like to bump into.
00:20
Is she showing up?
00:22
I don't know if she's on the list, but we need to get hot to go.
00:25
We need to tell the DJ to play it.
00:27
Exactly. We're celebrating excellence in television, which involves both of us.
00:32
I'm TikTok dancing. Shut up.
00:33
Okay, sorry.
00:34
It's my new career.
00:36
I want to be an influencer.
00:38
Their life looks so fun.
00:41
Makeup tutorials and cooking pasta.
00:43
You have to go like this.
00:44
Disgusting pasta.
00:45
You have to hold it up and do that.
00:47
Hey guys, here's my purse.
00:51
This is my audition.
00:53
So I got some swag at last year's Night Before Party.
00:57
It's the Wakanda Forever lip gloss.
01:01
Can you see? There's a sheen.
01:03
Oh, it's deli...
01:06
Oh my God, I love it.
01:09
It's just the best.
01:11
Nailed it. You are now the hottest new influencer.
01:13
Thank you. Thank you.
01:14
I don't make as much money as them, so be nice.
01:17
I'd like to get a raise.
01:19
For you, season four of Abbott Elementary is about to premiere next month.
01:22
What are you excited for fans to see with Ms. Schimanti next season?
01:26
You know, there's so much room that we have with 22 episodes to just take...
01:32
What we did last season, which was a ton of story crammed into 14 because of the strike,
01:37
and Quentin was pulling our hair out, and the writers killed themselves,
01:41
and they made an incredibly full-packed, stacked season.
01:47
And this one is just as many, if not more, laughs.
01:52
Room for the relationships to kind of combine and fizz and spark.
01:59
And just a lot more fun. It's a lot more fun, I think.
02:03
We were all really up against it last year.
02:08
I think we made great television, but we're having such a good time with each other.
02:12
We can play a little bit more.
02:16
I'm going to speak as if I'm not part of it.
02:19
It is such a talented ensemble, I think the best on television,
02:25
that having the room to play within the scenes just sparks so much more.
02:31
And I think the audiences are going to see that.
02:34
I know they are. They're going to love it. I'm loving it.
02:37
I leave work every day and go, damn, that was good TV we just made.
02:41
I love that. Well, have a fun night tonight.
02:43
We lost your buddy, but you can go rejoin her.
02:46
She went to another interview.
02:48
I saw other people that I like.
02:50
What are you saying to Tiffany? She's my new best friend.
02:54
She's my influencer crew.
02:56
Your hype crew, exactly.
02:58
This is Los Angeles, everybody.
03:00
Just in case you don't know, Thickle and Fairweather Friends.
03:03
That's me. That's me.
03:05
Whatever's the hot thing of the moment, Thickle Fisher here does off to the next.
03:10
Hold on. Harry Hamlin's here.
03:11
See? See?
03:13
Lisa Rinna right behind him.
03:15
Have a great rest of your night. Thank you.
03:17
His wife makes really good lip gloss, by the way.
03:20
Usually that's what's in my purse.
03:22
Facts. Facts.
