Great news all around, for my talented cousin Mike, who created the show and is its exec. producer (along with LeBron James) as well as show runner, my brother Brendan who is on the writing staff, and my cousin Kerry who has appeared in two episodes as a journalist (she got a huge shoutout in this Entertainment Weekly review of last week’s episode. Check out page 2.). Listen, it’s all about connections. It’s a fantastic show, deep and funny and thoughtful, with incredible acting from the entire ensemble. It’s also wonderful because it provides constant surprises. Extremely human. Congratulations to cast and crew.
