A Lesson in Soap Opera Drama
Michael Strahan eagerly participated as Susan offered a live tutorial on how to elevate an on-screen fight. “Last time you were here, you taught me the classic fake TV slap,” Strahan recalled. “So what’s the next level of a great soap opera showdown?”
Holding a glass of water, Susan explained, “You can’t just have an argument out of nowhere. You have to be fully in the moment, really feeling the intensity.”
