The show was successful in season one. It got a lot of acclaim, and it got a lot of viewers. And then in season two, it just felt like we hit another level. Season twos are always more fun to do because you don\u2019t have to do any world-building. It\u2019s all about taking the characters you\u2019ve already built and going deeper. I never think about awards, especially since I tend to be a bit of a populist when I write, and that\u2019s the stuff that tends to not necessarily get the nominations. Also, I thought of our show as something that people were loving, but you know, is it a comedy or is it a drama? We\u2019re one hour, so we\u2019re a drama, but we\u2019re not a drama like certain other shows are dramas, and that makes it tricky when it comes to awards because we don\u2019t necessarily fit cleanly into a category. So, I was thrilled that there was enough consensus to at least put us in the conversation.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Why does Coop (Jon Hamm) not wear a mask?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThere\u2019s an absurdist bend to our show, and from a purely practical perspective, we want to see Jon Hamm\u2019s face. But as far as our show logic, the notion is in these neighborhoods, people really don\u2019t use their security systems because the neighborhood has its own patrol. It\u2019s very safe. It has a crime rate of almost zero, and [Coop] does use a Wi-Fi jammer to take out their Wi-Fi-based camera system. So, we address it. The notion is that you know he\u2019s going to walk in and out of these houses, and he\u2019s a guy who, if you see him, you wouldn\u2019t necessarily suspect he\u2019s up to no good. But if he\u2019s wearing a mask, he\u2019s basically telegraphing, \u201cI\u2019m up to no good.\u201d So, the idea, which we convey in the pilot and a few other times, is if you happen to see him walking off your front stoop or off your yard and he\u2019s just wearing sweats, you wouldn\u2019t say, \u201cOh my God, he just robbed my house.\u201d You would assume he had some other reason for being there.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=5291\">\u2018Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse\u2019 Trailer Drops Online, Christopher Miller Slams Leak<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Jon did not get nominated for the series \u2014 again. What are your thoughts on that?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tI didn\u2019t in any way assume the show would get nominated for outstanding drama, but I always assumed people would notice his performance and nominate him. I\u2019m pretty surprised that two seasons in, he still hasn\u2019t been nominated. He\u2019s doing something pretty nuanced and careful and exceptional on our show, which is sort of showing the crumbling of this alpha man. He\u2019s almost deconstructing his own persona. He\u2019s doing it [with] really complex and nuanced bits of vulnerability and failure and a total lack of vanity. I do think it\u2019s a performance that should have been recognized, and I hope it will be at some point.<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>This story first appeared in an August stand-alone issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine.
