Along with the similarities in their family lives, Chyler Leigh shares some other attributes with Kat Landry, and that includes having dealt with anxiety at times in her own life. "One of the aspects that I really loved about Kat and you'll get to see it as the season progresses, is that she has panic attacks," Leigh explained to Southern Living, "and has these moments where she just is so completely overwhelmed."

Showing that those hard feelings are a part of life is something that helps make the character of Kat seem relatable for the viewer, and it's something that Leigh appreciates being able to portray on screen. "To address these super real-life and raw emotions, I think it's just been something that people have been able to find themselves in each one of these characters and each one of these scenarios," Leigh said.

So even if you don't find yourself falling into a pond and traveling back through time in your own life, you may still be able to see yourself in the characters on "The Way Home." It gives viewers a chance to feel like their own emotions and family issues, whatever they may be, are felt and understood by others in the world.
