Meet the Parents: The (Now Expecting) Stars of ‘Trying,’ TV’s Comedy Gem
On the Apple TV+ series Trying, Rafe Spall and Esther Smith play one of TV’s most compassionate and loving couples. So when we connect over Zoom to discuss the show and Spall, a tall and charming London native, earnestly looks into the camera and exclaims, “Oh no! You’re freezing,” I’m genuinely touched.
“Oh yeah, thanks,” I reply, wrapping myself tighter in my cardigan. “My apartment is always cold, but I’m OK.”
They double over laughing. The actors are so endearingly parental on Trying that, having just watched episodes of the new season, which launched Wednesday, I assume they are concerned about my well-being and comfort.
