Episode 4 director Kate Coiro took to Instagram to mark the occasion, sharing a photo of Lamar and husband Rhys Coiro casually chatting on set. Singing her praises for the actor, Kate noted that Lamar is one of the sharpest and wittiest actors she had ever met.
Rhys only had good things to say about his fellow actor as well. In an interview with TV Insider, Rhys revealed that he and Lamar had developed a solid friendship while shooting the show. "He's just a national treasure and one of my favorite things about being an actor is that familial bond that you develop with your fellow actors. And he and I had just had a great rapport between takes, I was just in a constant state of interviewing him, and learning about his amazing life. I mean, he didn't even start acting until he was in his late seventies. He's just completely in the moment. And Kat [Coiro] was adding lines for him in the spur of the moment. That character is so much more fleshed out in the final cut. It's just lovely."
