At the 'Hacks' PaleyFest panel on Thursday night, the cast teased what fans can expect from the upcoming second season.
— star of the HBO Max comedy “Hacks” —casually replied as she pretended to take a drag from an invisible cigarette and blow the smoke out.
The Emmy award-winning series follows Smart as the legendary Las Vegas comedian who is struggling to stay relevant. Reluctantly, she teams up with Ava , a young, down-on-her luck and entitled writer. While their relationship is a volatile one, the two form an unlikely mentorship. "I was fearful that because the relationship between Ava and Deborah is so much, I think, a part of what made season one so fun to watch, I thought, 'Well, will that bring them closer? Is that going to be watered down? Is that going to be something now that the audience is going to miss?'" she continued."But somehow they made it work equally as well."
As for Deborah’s mindset throughout it all? Smart explained that she thinks her character is “suddenly in a position she just hasn’t felt in so many years.” “She thought she was doing that out of love, taking her with her on the road, you know, even though her daughter was in seedy green rooms of awful places when she was young and impressionable. But then, of course, her daughter sees it as sort of abusive,” she explained. “And that’s the complexity of being a parent is that you never feel you get it right. You think you’re doing something for the right reasons and it turns out to be not the right thing to do.
During the panel, the creators confirmed that aside actors Devon Sawa and Susie Essman were making appearances.Smart recalled how Aniello went into labor early while they were still filming and she was directing an episode.
