DEN OF GEEK: First off, congratulations on the recent second season renewal! Have you guys thought at all about stories for the second season and where you’d like to go next year with the show?

ZACH KANIN: We have! We’re in the writers room now working on that. It’s fun. It’s interesting to do it with a season already under your belt as opposed to a first season where you’re figuring everything out. You’re basing each episode off of whatever the last episode you wrote was, plus you haven’t seen any of them shot yet or be on TV. So it’s kind of a different after seeing it on TV, how people are reacting, and then trying to account for that moving forward.

Are people’s responses going how you expected they would? Has anything caught on a lot greater than you anticipated, or the opposite of that?

Not really. It’s just kind of impossible to anticipate that. You hope everyone in the world will love it, but expect that everyone in the world will hate it. So it’s nice to see that a lot of people seem to like this.

For instance, I used to work at Saturday Night Live before this. A lot of the time you’d write a sketch, have no idea how it’d be received, get a week of everyone saying they love it, and then you’d perform and just get complete silence. And the takeaway is, “Oh, I guess that was horrible…” Or it’s not. You don’t really know! You’re always prepared to be completely wrong about what you think is good.
