He shared with the show’s diverse casting, such an element helps bring the story to life. “You get a lot of different storylines going, a lot of different people, different backgrounds, different things that are concerning them and you can follow them,” he said. “From a maker of TV, it’s also nice to have one main plot and then another plot going, and cut back and forth between them. So you don’t have to worry about, how am I going to get to the next scene? It doesn’t matter, I’ll cut away to the other plot and then I’ll cut back and we’ll be in the next scene. So that’s a fun thing.” Seasons 1 and 2 of  are currently streaming on Prime Video.
