\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tIt\u2019s the busiest time of the TV year with shows such as Grotesquerie and The Perfect Couple kicking off the fall season. The Perfect Couple, which is based on Elin Hilderbrand\u2018s novel of the same name, centers around a wedding weekend in Nantucket that doesn\u2019t go exactly as planned. Most of the details have been [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Before joining the cast of CBS\u2019 Matlock<\/em>, Lewis played the surly George on fan-favorite series Nancy Drew<\/em> from 2019 to 2023. George started as The Bayside Claw manager before becoming the owner and later ending the series as a law student<\/a> headed to Seattle.<\/p>\n\u201cNancy Drew<\/em> was one of the best experiences of my life and I think anytime you\u2019re on a new project, it takes a second to reorient. It\u2019s interesting playing someone who is entering adulthood [like George] vs. someone like Sarah who already is in her adulthood,\u201d Lewis explained to Us<\/em>. \u201cBut George had a rougher edge to her. She wasn\u2019t as intentional with her words or the things that she said like Sarah is. But even Sarah is a young junior associate who is finding her way. But she\u2019s a little past George\u2019s stage when it comes to being an adult.\u201d<\/p>\n\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1792576_03629bc.jpg?w=1000&quality=86&strip=all\")

That\u2019s where you find both of the characters at the beginning of each series where they have a lot to learn. Even though Sarah is a bit more mature than George, she still kind of struggles with learning how to get along with other people,\u201d Lewis teased. \u201cOr learning when to say something and when not to say something. Because Sarah can be pretty straightforward.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lewis also had to adjust from filming a supernatural series<\/a> to a legal drama.<\/p>\n\u201cIt was a really good transition. I\u2019m very lucky that I was able to work on a show and then stay in the CBS family as well. I love CBS,\u201d she gushed. \u201cI was also very excited to walk into a cast that was a little bit older than what my last cast was.

It has been interesting going from shooting in the woods at 4 A.M. and running away from monsters to now dealing with a more cerebral side of TV,\u201d she detailed. \u201cI\u2019m working with mental monsters \u2014 as we would like to call it \u2014 as we\u2019re fighting off different cases and helping different people.
