I have a pretty close family and there are certain similarities-maybe a lot of families have this-where geographically, we're separated, and there are times when one family member will be needing a lot at one particular moment, so everyone rallies around that particular family member. Then there are other moments where, if [the family is] okay, I might not talk to my brother for two or three weeks, but then if I get him on the phone at five in the afternoon, it feels like we spoke that morning. That time gap between when you talk, when everyone's okay, it sort of disappears when you're talking. I think Kevin's family is sort of like that as well; some relationships are stronger than others at certain times. The way the show is written, it's so real. There are certain things that are obviously problems and should be topics of conversation that aren't.
