"The most emotional storyline, which is always what I’m looking for specifically, is that these two friends who loved each other — like really loved each other, but also had all these simmering resentments — have this major blowout, full of truthful things that were said to one another. And then through sheer obstinance, like absolute stubbornness, neither one could offer an olive branch to the other. And because of that, a tragic accident occurs. That’s baggage. That’s something to carry into 2021 that Shauna will have to live with forever.” — Jonathan Lisco

“I think this is going to be an ongoing problem for Van and Taissa: They don’t talk. They certainly don’t argue. I don’t think Taissa knows about Van’s mother; I don’t think Van knows about Taissa’s sleepwalking. These are two characters who adore each other but probably for a long time have had a relationship that’s practical: We’re high schoolers in 1996, let’s be sensible about this, and also, let’s have fun. We have a lot in common, we’re both no-nonsense, we’re both really smart, we both think we’re really hot. But I don’t know that there’s a long-term foundation in place for them yet. What are these two like when there’s conflict?”  —  Liv Hewson
