Recognizing the importance of this moment, they listened and agreed.

“He’d given his blood, sweat and tears to [the episode], which they had signed off on every step of the way—from the outline, to the script, to the table read, to the point where they actually spent the money and made the episode,” Anderson, who is also an executive producer of the show,in September 2018. “And I don’t know what those conversations were, but we entered into this partnership with the understanding that we would be able to tell the stories that we wanted to tell.
