It’s been great. You know, I was just as upset about that hiatus as everyone else, because it’s been so nice to enjoy the show we made with the people and watch the audience enjoy it as much as we do. So I missed that over those three weeks. I was like, “Oh man, I guess I’m going to be really hurting when this first season is done,” but that’s okay.Oh, yeah, definitely.
I was going to ask about that! How does it feel to have that rarest of things in 2022, a network hit? It’s so cool. I can’t say that I think that much about it, but I’ve seen the headlines and what people are saying about it, and of course I hear feedback from ABC and Warner Brothers, who are over the moon.
