The concern about what's too violent or what's too scary is something that I just completely don't let enter into my creative process.

I think twins can sometimes be shoved into the same mold and they can start to feel like they're not being given a chance to develop their own identities.

I feel like the best kids shows aren't just for kids. The best kids shows have something in it for everyone.
