The Righteous Gemstones' Walton Goggins And John Goodman Credit The Show's Success To One Star

I have to start by saying I feel great every day because I take my daily dose of Baby Billy Freeman's Health Elixir!

John Goodman: Are you noticing big red blotches yet?

Walton Goggins: You'll live a year longer than you anticipate! [laughs]

You got a lifelong customer, Baby!

Goggins: Thank you, sir! Thank you!

The reason we're talking about Season 3 of "The Righteous Gemstones" today is because the show kicks ass. It is so freaking hilarious. But sustaining that sort of momentum isn't as easy as it looks. Do you fine-tune things before you start a new season, or do you rely solely on what Danny McBride and his co-writers come up with, or is it a combination of both?

Goodman: I trust those guys. They come up with better stuff than I ever could, and I trust them and jump in with both feet. We have such a great cast that you want to give everybody your all, and because they're all doing it, it makes a long day a lot shorter because we laugh all day.

Goggins: [Danny] has an arc for all of this, and it has changed, and he's modifying it as he goes, but we trust him, and he trusts us on the day [of filming]. It is an opportunity to go to work every day, take comedy very seriously, and have a great time doing it, because people aren't showing up and not bringing their all, [saying it's] a paycheck. People are showing up with their A game all day every day, and it's a joy to be in that environment. That's where success and happiness is, and all the rest of it in my book.
