This is the Queerty interview, where we bring you conversations with the most exciting LGBTQ+ voices in entertainment, activism and beyond. Today we're talking to actor Mark Indelicato about his recent standout episode of Hacks, "I Love LA".

Season 4 of the award-winning Max Comedy sees Jean Smart's, Deborah Vance hosting the late night show she's long dreamed about. In the latest episode, her show finally premieres, but since she's at odds with her head writer Eva, played by Hannah Einbinder, she has no one to celebrate with. Desperate, Deborah calls her long-suffering assistant, Damien to join her for dinner.

Played by Mark Indelicato, Damien's been an invaluable part of the Hacks ensemble from the jump, but he really shines here, especially once he decides to take Deborah for a celebratory night out in WeHo.

We spoke to Indelicato about filming the episode, taking Jean Smart out on the town, and whether or not he agrees with Damien's hot take about LA gays.
