No shows in the time of coronavirus got a pass on pivoting from original production plans — not even Netflix’s “Social Distance,” a show that was born out of the pandemic itself and therefore anticipated some of the tougher elements right from the jump.’s anthology series had been written and the show was days away from shooting when George Floyd was murdered.
“It’s a multi-million dollar, fancy ass place. It’s not over the top, but it’s nice; Mike Colter is a successful actor,” Graham says of his house. “We sent hospital equipment, some sides for the walls; we asked her husband to dress up as an orderly and do a pass,” Graham says. “That kind of stuff really tickled us, and I think it was part of the fun of making the series. It was very down and dirty and it was fun to be challenged in that way.”
Other roles were even more complicated. Danielle Brooks’ character is a single mom to a 6-year-old, who she leaves home alone while she goes to work. The script called for her character’s scenes to be with her patient, while the child eventually goes to stay with her patient’s adult daughter. So the show needed to find two adult generations of women quarantining together in one home, and an adult-child combination in another.
