Interview: Kevin Spirtas from the 6x Emmy winning series 'After Forever'

The Randy Report - LGBTQ Politics & Entertainment

Today I’m speaking to the oh-so-charming Kevin Spirtas - one of the co-creators, writers and stars of the acclaimed LGBTQ TV series, 'After Forever.' 'After Forever' is the recipient of 6 Daytime Emmy Awards - the most Emmy-awarded LGBTQ-themed drama series on any platform. The first two seasons of the series received rave reviews for telling the rarely seen story of vibrant, active, diverse “grown-up” gay men... a group who tend to disappear from television and film once they are no longer 20- or 30-something, not returning until they are elderly and non-sexual. The producers of the series recently released a documentary-style special episode titled, 'Riley’s Unforgettable School Project.' This unique installment of the series centers around the character of Riley (Finn Douglas) who, while attending school remotely due to COVID-19, is tasked with creating a project about the most unforgettable person he’s ever met. The special was shot remotely throughout the Fall of 2020 while the country continued the battle against COVID-19. The creative team says they knew they couldn’t film Season 3 as intended due to COVID and they wanted do something creative to keep the 'After Forever' family and fans engaged. The producers plan to resume production on Season 3 once it’s safe to do so in late 2021. Also, the GLAAD Media Award nominations were recently announced including the news that 'After Forever' will be honored with a Special Recognition Award. Join me as I chat with Kevin Spirtas about the new special “Riley’s Unforgettable School Project,” life imitating art, and more. You can find 'After Forever' on Amazon Prime video.
