And subsequent to that, Kyle had a very difficult upbringing. He was the person that I wish we all were, in terms of just his depth of spirit, his generosity, his empathy. But the other thing we always thought was Kyle was the purest character on the show. We wanted to make certain that we kept his unique view on life. I feel like, for us, part of that was showing Kyle’s journey continues, and it was very important for us to deepen the Kyle character. Was the goal to show how much Kyle has grown since fans first met him? One of the more touching stories to come out of the first half-hour was the moments between Kyle and Ed. We did have Kaitlyn come in to shoot that scene. And it was great to be able to have everybody there for that last episode. Along with everybody else, we had to sacrifice a lot of things, the live audience shows for one, not having a final curtain call, almost not being able to be at table readings together, all of the human interactions that we prize so much were gone. But it was a trying season, that was very difficult. So I don’t mean to paint our difficulties as world-shattering. I’m always going to throw this caveat that I understand that a lot of people had it a lot harder than we did, and I have that sympathy for them. What was it like getting to have most of the cast come together for this finale, especially in a year where so many people are forced apart because of the pandemic? So we dwelled on the storylines of the other characters in the first half-hour so that in the second half-hour, we could return to the emotional core of the series, which is Mike and Vanessa, and then secondarily, Mike and Ed. Basically point them in a direction… the Jen (Krista Marie Yu) camping story was a way to take all the other elements and bring them back home as a family, for it to launch us into our final half-hour because that was really going to be about Vanessa and Mike. Ultimately, what we decided to do was take the first half-hour and tell three stories that were going to show that the character’s lives are going to continue off-screen. The first two episodes that I pitched were hour-long episodes. What was the inspiration behind the main storylines of camping and Mike’s truck in the two-part finale?įox said that they would like to have the final episode as an hour, we set about figuring out what that episode was going to do. That didn’t work out as the season went along for various reasons and we kept shifting it. I just think it’s a message that needs to be out there at this point in time in America of listening to the other side and finding common humanity, as opposed to just constantly attacking. They’re meeting in the middle, they were discovering each other, which thematically I liked very much. That was based on this arc that we’d played with the guys where Ryan was becoming more of a capitalist and Mike was becoming more sympathetic to some of Ryan’s views.
And Ryan was going to be the one that took over Outdoor Man.

Originally I had had in my mind that we were building towards a season finale where we took the Mike and Ryan (Jordan Masterson) relationship full circle. We started at the beginning of the year as we do with every season… we break out loose character arcs some of the characters go or what the general theme of the season would be. Kevin Abbott: The simple answer to that is no, it was not. Was this the ending you’d always envisioned for the Baxters?
