Winderbaum's passion for the series is evident as he expressed his deep connection to the characters and storyline.

"I've fallen so head over heels in love with these characters and I've now read all of the scripts for Season 2; we're halfway through the animatics," Winderbaum stated. He praised lead writer and executive producer Jeff Trammell for the meticulous development of the series, noting that the payoff begins in Season 1 and intensifies with each subsequent season. "What [Jeff Trammell] is building brick by brick in this show starts to pay off. And you feel it in Season 1. You grow connected to these characters so that when everything starts to lock into place and pay off by the end of the season. I feel it in my very soul and it just gets deeper and deeper in subsequent seasons."
