The 90s Called!,the actress said she recently learned that there were talks of possible cancellation after season 1. Davis added that HBO even went so far as to send in a producer fromThe Sopranosto save the production. "It was kind of, you know, from a production standpoint, like, an unwieldy show," she shared with cohosts Christine Taylor and David Lascher. "We were shooting really fast. We were shooting in so many locations in New York City, which is not easy, as we know. We didn't really have sets." The set building was minimal, with Davis recalling how her character Charlotte's space consisted of two white walls and a bed. However, the show was still expensive to shoot because they were filming on the streets of New York City, which is itself a character on the series. "That was the great part of it, but I guess they were stressing over there at HBO about it," Davis said. Luckily,Sex and the Citybecame a smash, running for six seasons on HBO.
