There's a lot of male posturing that happens more between the two guys I think. They're commanding, but they don't seem to need to hold power, it's a different way of controlling an operation. I feel like Leanne and Willis deflect power. You would think so but it becomes that we're alpha in a good way. Both so alpha - will there be a conflict? What's nice is that's there a meeting of the minds with Rob and Leanne, they're similar characters, risk-takers, cowboys to a degree.
Rob brings a lot of testosterone - a lot of star power, charm. You're not just following the melody, there's a lot of counterpoint that's going on. So in the middle of this story it's truly not the medical that's important. But what's so different about it is the layering of camera, extras, the story, the blood, the medical knowledge, and then on top of that is all the emotional storyline we're carrying. I've done one-hour shows before but the nature of this beast - it is a beast, it's a hospital show, so you're already in a certain environment. His goal is that you could freeze frame at any time and look back and what you're seeing would look like real life, not like a movie. It feels like such a dense production, the tapestry is rich, the layers are rich, Michael, our creator is involved in every single detail and makes sure each shot is layered with action. There is so much happening in this series, behind all the leading action.
