At one point, Alice walked out and I felt like we had just done a scene like that like it were yesterday.īeals: The table read for this episode was like no table read I have ever been at. Even though Leisha exits the scene before Tina arrives, we were all there together so it was just really fun catching up. What was it like on set when you both reunited?īeals: It felt giddy because all of us were together. I was struggling with a certain sort of abandonment, but I thought, ‘Well, what’s the difference between a child going to boarding school at 14?’ So I felt like she went at a time where it didn’t look to her so much as abandonment, but it also makes a huge statement on how much she trusts Bette as a co-parent and I thought that was an interesting dynamic. It was a little complex in that Tina is the one away and she’s going for her career, which we haven’t quite seen. And I have a 15-year-old daughter, who was in my belly during the second season of the original show. I have been divorced from my partner since my children were 2 and 5. Holloman: It was a gift because I do co-parent. Talking to Ilene and Marja, the storyline of co-parenting and complexities of co-parenting after divorce is interesting, so we dove in with that. Then it became about figuring out what the story was if the person can come in for a limited amount of time. To presume that somebody could even be a regular with that schedule is not possible. It was clear early on because of Laurel’s schedule. So, it’s not as if she could come back in every episode she has things that are meaningful that she is working on. How much of a role, if any, did you both have in deciding Bette and Tina would be divorced?īeals: Laurel has a very vibrant, powerful career as a painter. “It was a gift because I do co-parent,” Holloman tells THR. She was in Paris when Generation Q began production, and the former actress and Beals - who remain fiercely protective of the iconic couple - worked with Ryan and Chaiken to come up with the storyline. The divorce was a result of Holloman’s schedule. “That was one thing we really had to work on to do very quickly - to fill in all the gaps,” Beals told The Hollywood Reporter in a joint interview with Holloman ahead of Sunday’s episode. The freshman Showtime drama from original series creator Ilene Chaiken and showrunner Marja-Lewis Ryan revealed shortly afterward that Tina surprisingly left Bette and fell in love with someone else. However, Generation Q revealed that Bette and Tina had recently divorced and were co-parenting Angie. Bette and Tina’s often turbulent relationship ended with the couple in a good place as they were last seen raising their daughter, Angie, together, and heading for New York to legally tie the knot. It has been more than a decade since audiences saw the fan favorite, on-again, off-again original L Word couple together.
