But it's also got a lot of humor. My attraction to it [the show] was that, not only was it smart and compelling, but it also had moments of humanity and humor.

It's scary, because I like to go last when everyone has hit, and I'm replacing a score, so the pressure is off. I don't really like to go when it was the way it was today. You get scared, because you don't want to be another one to fall.
