Two years ago it felt novel to do the East Side and then tons of other stuff have come up set in that world, but we still liked it. It felt like people are using East Side in other shows because it is cool.

We feel like we are using the East Side to kind of spoof what everybody thinks is cool.

It is just fun to play with [in "Mary and Jane"]. I think our sense of humor tends to go that way.

There is an episode [in "Mary and Jane"] where there is not a lot of pot smoking, but there is a giant wall of weed in their apartment.

Somebody said, there is no show if it goes legal. But actually, there is.

Totally whatever we want to put in there. Then it was really "Now we are going to make it. We really need to find a consistent tone."I think the pilot ["Mary and Jane"] actually got it. It was more about the other episodes making sure everything else.
