This story contains details from the season one finale ofShifting Gearson ABC.
What do you think?
Its about how they navigate that in their relationship.
Kat Dennings, Tim AllenDisney/Raymond Liu
Thats kind of where the core of the comedy comes from.
Watch on Deadline
DEADLINE Do you talk politics much?
It is fertile ground, especially nowadays.
DENNINGSThere are some little jokes here and there.
When you love someone, that can be a very difficult dynamic.
I think he knows that its best.
DEADLINE Whats it been like for you, being back in the multi-cam universe?
I wanted to do something different.
And then I found myself missing the format.
Now that Im older, I really enjoy that more and I found myself really missing it.
This has really been a nice and sweet return to that.
The people who enjoyed that show were cheated out of a conclusion.
But its so classic with TV.
Maybe one day well do a Will & Grace and well bring it back.
I would be open to that.
Wed be like two 60-year-olds, but not the 60s old.
It would be different.
Thered be a time jump.
DEADLINE How was it for you finding a groove with Tim?
DENNINGSI had no idea what I was walking into because you also just never know how people really are.
But I was so pleasantly surprised with his behavior toward me.
So there are crew members that have been working with him for 25 years, which is really rare.
And his fans love him.
The audiences weve had on Shifting Gears Ive never experienced anything before.
I know that theyre there to see Tim, and thats the beauty of the whole thing.
They are so raucous.
I wasnt used to it on 2 Broke Girls.
We had a lot of variables with the audience.
Sometimes it would be amazing and sometimes it would be completely silent, crickets really.
So this has been a real treat.
Have you heard anything yet about a pickup?
DENNINGSNo, we havent.
Of course were all on pins and needles about it but hopefully we will.
Im a very negative person, so I never expect anything to happen.
DENNINGSNo, I didnt.
I think they had been tossing a few ideas around.
In the finale, she finally realizes that they have both just grown apart.
Shes a completely different person.
She wants different things.
Hes still sweet, and we can see why she fell for him in the first place.
Youve got to keep that conceit to keep the show going.
Can you imagine this going for a fifth season and shes still there?
I think the beauty of this is that I can conceive it.
She might end up there for five seasons or maybe in season three she does move out.
Theres also her brother, Sam, who weve never seen before.
Hes in the military who will come in hopefully in future seasons.
And then theres that whole dynamic with who he is.
Wheres he going to live?
So there could be just unlimited ways to go with this.
Im really looking forward to that and really hope so much that we get a season two.
