TV Interview!
Interviews with Alexander Hodge and Matt Davis of “Grosse Pointe Garden Society” on NBC by Suzanne
I had a blast speaking with both of these amazing artists. Alexander plays Alice’s husband, Doug, who’s an artist. Matt plays a world-weary cop. Both actors were a lot of fun to chat with – the complete opposite of their somewhat-dour characters. I hope you watch the show, which twists and turns with many mysteries and has lots of humor, too. It reminds me of “Desperate Housewives,” with a little bit of “Devious Maids” and “How to Get Away with Murder” thrown in. The show airs Sundays 10/9C or streaming on Peacock.
