“What came the most naturally was Alexis,” said Dan. “The stories, the backstories, the celebrity sightings, the hookups…” -when asked which was his favorite character to write for. Dan revealed that while he likes to write for Moira (played by O’Hara) it was Alexis, Murphy’s character, that came the most naturally for him.
“So familiar to you all of that,” said Murphy jokingly. Dan responded with, “They were all my life stories and I just gave them to the character.”
As the beloved cast went on to share their insights behind playing their characters, O’Hara revealed her favorite Moira wig was the pink one. Eugene, co-creator and Dan’s dad, also shared that he dreaded filming “The Drip” opening scene, from season one, episode two.
