Do you have to have a top-secret Showtime clearance to know what’s next on the series?
Thanksgiving was funny, because my family was just trying to extract information from me. And I can’t give away anything. It’s fun and frustrating to sit on the secrets. Everybody thinks Saul is guilty now. That seems to be a common insight, but, uh, no. He's not, to shatter everybody's dreams there. But yeah, it's fun that people are are engaged with it. Hugh [Dancy, Danes’s husband] started watching the show, but he wouldn’t even allow me to talk about what I was doing at work that day because he didn’t want to have the story be spoiled. I was like, But I need to share my experiences with you! The nice thing is that the writers don’t really know either, [laughs] so we’re safe; we can’t spoil it even if we wanted to.
Are you spoiler averse in your own TV watching?
No, actually, I’m very happy to know what happens next. It doesn't bother me. I think it's interesting to see how it's executed. That's plenty for me. I used to have nightmares when I was a little kid that I woke up prematurely and opened all the Christmas presents. And then I would be so relieved when I woke up and I realized that I hadn't done it.
So you had nightmares that you had ruined the surprise of your Christmas presents, but you've grown up a person who wants the surprise ruined.
Yeah, basically. But it's that same anxiety, that I won’t be able to maintain discipline.
