[@LilyGreenwald]

I worked as an extra on this show and was inspired by Michael's (Tariq) kindness and humility. He always made a point to respect everyone on set. One time while he was on a break, instead of going to his trailer he went out of his way to hang out with the extras in a hot cramped room. He genuinely wanted to get to talk to everyone.

[@juwansmith9906]

That’s amazing is it any way I can ask how that went through video chat or anything?

[@monaw4573]

Why were the extra's in a hot cramped room? Not a good look for the show. I don't know anything about the behind the scenes, so knowing this really hurts.
