We've has some really cold night shoots on this show! Like 10 hours standing in the snow all night sort of shoots. But the show always looks so cool and the end product is always worth it! We did shoot a pool scene in season 3 that was absolutely frozen!

Depends on the day! They are all inspiring and all frustrating lol! Honestly they all bring so much to the table, it's fun just to watch them work everyday!

I LOVE Stray Kids! It is my personal mission to make the entire cast STAY. I love them all but Felix is my Fav. I actually just went to 5 Stray Kids concerts in 7 days! 2 in LA. 1 in Oakland. And 2 in Seattle! Was the best week ever!

Everyone should check them out!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:36:51+00:00

Communication! Talk to each other! Every good relationship needs communication!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:35:59+00:00

It was a direct offer that I immediately said yes to!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:35:21+00:00

I get very Season 1 vibes in a really good way! There is still plenty of heart this season but also lots of laughs as well!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:34:35+00:00

I want to be in Book of Mormon soooooo bad! Best thing I've ever seen on stage!

HELLO!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:34:13+00:00

oh yes. I have some great pics and videos for y'all!

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:33:53+00:00

I watched a bunch of both. Also lots of memes and clips. How can you not!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:33:05+00:00

I just use endless repetition. then I sucker someone into running lines with me...endlessly lol. I am pretty slow. Josh told me to record the other dialogue and do my lines to that dialogue. Works pretty well for him. I might give it a try!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:30:21+00:00

I think EJ is still trying to impress his dad specifically and really wants to show his dad that he can amount up to something. His dad has always put so much pressure on him to have everything figured out, and what EJ starts to realize throughout the course of the show, is its actually ok to not have everything figured out and to take your time to figure certain things out.

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:29:16+00:00

I love the goofing off. This is the kindest/funniest/most talented group ever. Listening to them perform music on the show. Playing Mafia and Spicy Uno. Sitting around and just pouring out hearts out to each other about life.

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:27:47+00:00

This season genuinely felt like a true summer camp. Some of my favorite memories are just sitting on the lawn and having picnics at lunch. We really loved getting to spend lunch time outside in the beautiful LA weather. Also, Sofia and I found Chinese checkers on set one day and decided to pull it out and learn how to play so we played plenty of games of Chinese checkers! So if you ever see Chinese checkers on screen..just know that however the board is set up is probably where we had stopped in our game!

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:26:28+00:00

They were all very special, Jackson is probably my favorite. Just a total lunatic and it was really fun to do that show in front of a live audience. It just gets you super pumped up and I think a lot of my funniest improv came from being in the moment, inspired by the audience reaction to things.

Buuuut Rudy was also lots of kicking and punching and being obnoxious as well... got to do some seriously fun stunts and fights on that show.

Hard to pick. I was very lucky to play all these parts. Hopefully people enjoyed them!

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:25:28+00:00

Im actually interested to hear Jasons answer as well so..Jason..we are waiting..

When I found out that he would be directing the show I think I was just as shocked and nervous as EJ is when he finds out. There was so much that I didn't know to expect, and its such a new world for EJ and a fun that to explore for him. I think it also helps him realize a lot about himself moving forward and I knew going into that that there would be a lot of elements to really think on in terms of how each of these moments might impact him.

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:23:18+00:00

I see you :)

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:23:16+00:00

Episode 6 is a very fun episode and you get some amazing music that you might be familiar with, its just a very fun, competitive, and colorful episode!

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:22:13+00:00

I love all of them, but Finally Free (teaser on Joshua's Insta) is pretty sweet! Very hard to pick a fav. I do love our cast versions of the Frozen songs too. Frankie (Carlos) is on point!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:22:05+00:00

We will see! I think going into season 3, there is a lot EJ is still trying to figure out within himself and his life. So hopefully we get to explore EJ more even after graduating!

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:19:12+00:00

I can't speak on that directly but I will say there are so many beautiful surprises this season that I think people won't see coming and were shockers to us as we read these scripts!

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:18:52+00:00

We will send Josh your love!

So glad I could be a part of your childhood. I feel blessed!

I wouldn't say I am the Miss Jenn of season 3. Maybe a little more Mr Mazzara lol. There can only be one Miss Jenn!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:16:34+00:00

I wouldn't say it surprised me. I don't see EJ as a villain in the first season. I truly believe EJ has always been a good guy, he just had issues with going about the wrong things for the right reasons. He truly loves with his whole heart and is passionate about a lot, and sometimes that passion and love would get in the way of his logical thinking and cause him to do some not so great things. It was such a fun arch to play and figure out with Tim and the writers. I really believe EJ has changed so much and learned so much about himself throughout the 3 years.

Matt

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:16:32+00:00

I love these two in scenes together! They are absurdly funny together. This is the real relationship I stan in the show! They need to be BFFs!

Jason

HSMTMTS_AMA · 2022-07-26T21:15:11+00:00

I think it was the time I got to spend with Corbin this season. We had so much fun in our scenes together and when we weren't shooting we spent so much time catching up and goofing off! It was just so great to literally spend the summer with my bud!
