In the interview below, Moss-Bachrach reflected on Season 1 and dove deeper into filming Season 2.
DEADLINE: This is your first Emmy nomination.
How does it feel to receive that accolade?
Ayo and Jeremy, [too], Im so excited that its a group recognition.
For me, thats everything.
MOSS-BACHRACH:No, its not something that I think about so much.
Im just very proud of the show.
Thats what I care about.
How have you seen him evolve?
MOSS-BACHRACH:Im very happy for him.
Hes struggled so much and has lost so much.
And then Season 2 has lot of victories for him.
Its just nice to to play somebody who gets to celebrate so much.
Those are hard earned victories.
DEADLINE: I think thats exactly why its so nice to see him win in Season 2.
Weve been waiting to see Richie hit his stride.
MOSS-BACHRACH:I think everyone wants to find a place.
And yeah, he made it home for the time being.
I think everything changes very quickly, in general, but, its a good moment for him.
DEADLINE: Episode 7 is kind of that turning point for Richie.
I have to say, the scene I loved the most was Richie singing Taylor Swift in his car.
You really committed to that scene.
MOSS-BACHRACH:I dont have much Taylor Swift knowledge.
I had the lyrics [to Love Story] down in the console.
But I didnt feel like he needed to know the lyrics exactly.
It was really just about the feeling and the emotion there.
And again, like I said before, just a moment of celebration.
I think its beautiful.
DEADLINE: Another really standout episode its so hard to pick, but Episode 6.
It feels very anxiety inducing and relentless, and Im curious how you go about shooting that.
MOSS-BACHRACH:To get that level of chaos actually takes a lot of organization.
DEADLINE: There are so many guest stars in that episode.
Its the first day of school and youre like a transfer student.
I think everyone did, and it is a very warm welcoming set.
I know that they were nervous, but then I think that quickly went away.
And its a great day for me always when I get to be on set with like 10 actors.
The seventh episode, I was by myself a lot.
I love that episode, but it was very lonely.
And what I love about the show is just the ensemble scenes and getting to be with everyone.
DEADLINE: Before I let you go, I want to ask about Carmy and Richie.
They end Season 2 on a tough note.
How do you think they come back from that, if they do?
MOSS-BACHRACH:I mean, they are family, but look at Carmys relationship with his mom.
I dont think they really speak.
So, I think anything goes.
I dont know how Carmy is.
I dont know if Carmy is so forgiving.
So Im not sure.
I dont know how he processes things so much.
So it is a little bit of a mystery for me as well.
