John Mulaney's one-season sitcom was originally supposed to be about sobriety
roundtable discussion. “It was based on the time in my life when I got sober at 23 and had two roommates and was just trying to figure out: What does a good person do? That was an actual part of my life, or a pointless gauntlet I threw down in front of myself.”Mulaney admits that “there was really something lost when I, on the advice of others higher up, took that out.” However, he takes “full responsibility,” saying, “I lost the thread that made it something.
”Despite coming from, Mulaney shares that he didn’t have much experience navigating notes from executives. The sketch show is “the most protected environment in entertainment,” according to the former writer. “We don’t get notes. I saw Jeff Zucker maybe once when he was the president of NBC. Nothing reached us, so to suddenly be the writer, producer and star of a network pilot, let alone a series, it was suddenly being the captain of a cruise ship,” he says.
