When Gorham first joined the project, he admitted that, like many fans, he had not watched Fire Country before reading the script. “I had never seen Fire Country before I [was] reading for this job,” he recently told SciFi Vision during an interview. “…I read the script, and then I went back and started watching Fire Country and became a fan. So, now I've seen all of them. I'm all caught up.”
He called the show’s emotional core his favorite aspect. “The family stuff to me is really the heart of the show,” he said, adding that Mickey’s struggle to balance her home life and work family is “really compelling.”
Gorham also talked about the complexity of Travis’s relationship with Mickey and Cassidy, noting, “Cassidy and Travis didn't intend to start a relationship…[T]hey both have a deep affection, or love, for Mickey. And I think that that thing that they have in common, which ironically is Mickey, is the thing that ended up bringing them together.”
During the interview, Gorham also discussed his work on season two of the comedy Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage where he plays reprises his role as Scott, Mandy’s ex-boyfriend and boss at the local news station, which is causing some conflict between the two lead characters. “Scott invites her on a story, like an overnight story that they're doing on the meteor shower, which is going to require her to go out of town with Scott for over the weekend, and Georgie's not happy about it, which spurs him to come and have a man-to-man conversation with Scott,” he said, adding that he has been looking forward to Scott and Georgie finally meeting.
