What they’re saying

“[Rip and Beth's] relationship is flawed, and I think Taylor's done a great job over the seven years we've been filming to make them as real as possible. They are not perfect, but I've heard from the audience over the years that that's why they love them so much, and I agree.”

— Cole Hauser
