Not believing in something is one thing, but letting that affect your performance is unprofessional. Sam needs to remember that she’s an actor first—that’s her job, and she should give it her best no matter what. I don’t understand why some actors bring their personal opinions into their roles. At the end of the day, it’s a show—the writer is doing their job, the creatives are doing theirs, and the actors should do theirs too.
I’ve seen this happen in the previous generation as well (we all know who), and while I respect their opinions, they also need to recognize that they are not the writers. If they feel that strongly, they could write the script or direct the scenes themselves—no one’s stopping them. But would they actually be able to do that?
To be clear, I’m not defending the creatives—they are undeniably terrible. But if a scene is already bad, the last thing I want is half-hearted acting on top of it. When even senior actors are putting in effort despite weak or nonexistent dialogues, why can’t she?
