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.

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.

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

The pilot is easy. It is 30 minutes, 20 minutes. It is not that much to juggle.

I don't think we had a hard time with ["Mary and Jane"]. It is just, it was the constant management of it.

Hopefully we have a slightly different vibe, but also East Side is where a lot young people live. It is a really fun, trendy, funky neighborhood, and it is ripe for satire, that area specifically.
