Is really useful, particularly when it comes to using Nazi imagery. 👋 - Though Chloe is only culturally Jewish rather than ethnically Jewish. She's adopted, if I remember correctly. - but tbh we did those Nazi sketches cos we all thought it was hilarious. There was pushback from some costumers -- it took a while to find someone who would make the swastikas for Bad Man. I wasn't privy to much of the production gossip from that, but I heard some of it. Ethan didn't really want me on the set -- Stephen thought him and Michelle were really slack with the camera set-ups; he felt he largely 'directed' the sketches. There were darker Bad Man sketches that weren't aired. We have our own sense of taste, and Ben Zolno wasn't keen for us to use the one he appeared in with Aidin Ralfe -- I've never seen that one, so I don't know if it's any good or not.
