“You’re the Worst” follows insensitive writer Jimmy Shive-Overly and his toxic relationship with cynical PR executive Gretchen Cutler.
The FX original, created by Stephen Falk, puts a dark twist on the conventional romantic comedy through an impressive performance by British actor Chris Geere, who says he has to work hard to convincingly play a narcissistic snob that is “so horrible.” He succeeds, making him an Emmy contender for best actor in a comedy series.
TheWrap talked with Geere about filming Season 2 and long distance binge-watching TV with his wife.
What was the toughest thing you had to do this season?
Probably pretending to be so horrible.
