Interview with Chris Pang and Justin Chien of “The Season” on HULU by Suzanne 6/4/26
It was great to speak with these two handsome and talented actors! You should check out this new series on HULU, especially if you liked the 2011 TV series “Revenge” on ABC. They have similar stories, but both are excellent series. The characters here are all new and different. I really enjoyed the 6 first season episodes they sent. I can’t wait to see season 2! Don’t miss it Wednesday, June 17th on HULU! Enjoy our fun little interview.
