“I definitely did not have the support that I did in the first season from the people involved in the show,” Sarah shared in the interview, revealing that there was a change in attitude from the filmmakers. “It became a much different thing for me — and I’m not afraid to say that.”

She went on, saying that she knows she’s “not always going to get along or agree with a filmmaker. I’m not always going to like what I have to do or say. But that’s my job, to make it believable.”

Sarah also revealed that she did struggle with the material for the season.

“[There were] more moments that felt very gimmicky,” she says, and noted she “couldn’t get behind” the direction the show was going from that. “I’m never going to work for Netflix again now after saying all this, but I can’t lie.”

As far as working one on one with co-star and real life partner, Adam Demos, Sarah was wanting more.

“I really liked our stories and I like working with him,” she said. “He was a brilliant scene partner. [In Season 2,] I was working so much and he was working so little. He’s, like, in 60 seconds of the entire thing. I never saw him.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Sarah opened up about her marriage to Steve Howey.
