"We really had to make sure that we did that accurately because we didn’t want anyone walking away saying ‘Nah, that isn’t how it was. I don’t know if I, I don’t believe this"

"No shortcuts were taken here from the amount of showing the love story to then the redemption and showing the violence"

"In Missing, we just kind of caught criminals. We would get them, arrest them, and turn them over. But hosting The Interrogation Room, going behind the scenes, showing how they build a case, how they get confessions, that was all totally new."

"I loved watching some 48 Hours, some Dateline, I love a good whodunit just like everybody else does! Just trying to figure out how that simple piece of hair, or blood drop, or footprint can help solve a crime."

"I think that by her being a woman director, it just brought so much,"

"Smallwood told CNN Fox has “so many skill sets that contribute to the success of any project.”"
