Not really — I just felt thatwas good. I remember one show I pitched … I thought, this is a show that would probably find its footing a little bit in the first and second season, and then it knows what it is in the third season.

I looked at the director’s cut and was like, “Whoa.” Sometimes a first cut can be horrifying.

I wanted it to go where people weren’t going. I studied marketing; you can either create a new market, or you keep playing in the market that exists. The streaming and cable space felt overrun, honestly.wasn’t necessarily gritty or dark — I had no interest in making it gritty or dark. I needed to push this where it belonged, which is in the network television space. There are people who think this is a Hulu show, but it airs on ABC first, and it reaches a different market for people.
