Sagal plays his mom on the show as well -- an idea EP Meaghan Oppenheimer cleared with Jackson White before pitching to the studio.
When it came time to cast Jackson White's on-camera mom for Hulu's"Tell Me Lies," the show couldn't have done any better than his real-life mama:The"Married with Children" star appears on the fifth episode of the series, which finds White's Stephen DeMarco headed home for the holidays. But it's not exactly a festive outing, as he and his siblings have to deal with their manipulative and, frankly, difficult mother.
Thankfully, White's actual relationship with his mom is much better than their TV counterparts -- but it was still a pretty daunting task for the 26-year-old to act opposite one of his parents. Jackson is one of Sagal's four children, and her youngest with ex-husband and Jack White .ahead of the season premiere."I did not expect to be so anxious doing it."
"I think when she arrived in Atlanta, I realized how in character I was and we'd be doing a scene and she'd be like, 'It was good, it was a good take.' And I'd be like, 'Mom, stop,'" he continued."It was hard. It was like, f---ing, is this a coworker? And we're friends in real life and it was hard to be so passive aggressive toward each other."
In the end, however, he said it was"ultimately really fun" to work with her, admitting she was"perfect for the role."
