In season two of Shrinking, Brian (Michael Urie) is no longer seeing everything go his way. He’s considering a major life change with his husband Charlie (Devin Kawaoka) and he’s very much out of the loop with the romance brewing between his best friend Jimmy (Jason Segel) and Gaby (Jessica Williams). Being the well-intentioned person he is, he also can’t help getting involved in the very sticky situation involving Jimmy, Alice (Lukita Maxwell), and Louis (Brett Goldstein).
Awards Buzz spoke with Urie about the joy of working on this show and Brian’s changing fortunes. Watch the video above to hear about what went into that very, very long monologue that he had to deliver multiple times and how it tapped into a different part of his acting training.
Seasons one and two of Shrinking are streaming on Apple TV+.
