WE WANT MORE What are your plans for the holidays? "We were going to just chill and stay at home this season, but my wife is suddenly against that, we always go to see my sister in Portland. My brother-in-law is a cop there. My sister is a chef and they have two kids and my kids love spending time with them, so we usually go up there and do some sledding. I think we have some other plans, but I know not sure. I'm just along for the ride," he laughs. "I just go where they tell me." What are you watching on TV? "I'm watching that really dark HBO show called Euphoria. Succession is great. People are making stuff that they couldn't have made at another time, so you get some really interesting shit, but you also get some stuff that you're like, what? Fleabag obviously is one. Do you watch Fleabag? Fleabag is super unique. A lot of great stuff on. I'm on a dying animal that feasibly won't be the same in a few years: network television. To be on a show where, we'll do 23 episodes this season, a show that is, like I said, trying to create a structure and create a venue that can remain as the culture evolves through different landscapes: political, social. A lot of shows, the great shows, the reason they're the greatest is they're speaking to right now, they make sense right now in this moment, and that doesn't mean they won't be great later. When I was on Six Feet Under, that was such a show that people at that time were like, Yes! This is so unique. When I started my career twenty years earlier, that's when Law & Order started, so my career span, so there's something to be said for that. I'm at a place in my life where that kind of consistency, longevity is —I'm very grateful to be a part of something like that. I think a lot of people really rely on that kind of entertainment that is consistent and gives them what they want, distracts them from what's going on in the world, while at the same time keeps them connected to a part of them." Are you still in touch with the cast of Clueless? "Donald Faison's kids just started at my kid's school, so I see him every now and then. He's a sweetheart. And I run into Breckin [Meyer] every now and then. Alicia [Silverstone] did an arc on Suburgatory a few years ago, so I got to hang out with her for awhile. We actually shared a message not long ago. But you know, I've got the kids, it's like my social life does not span too far…" Jeremy would definitely be down for a Clueless sequel. "I told you, I'll do anything," he laughs. "I'm easy these days. Those are kinda hard to do, right? "My Clueless was Breakfast Club —the John Hughes stuff. And I remember in my 20s, I was trying to do a revolving cast live version of Breakfast Club and John wouldn't have it. He was very adamant about those things not being recreated in any way."
