After that, it was about getting the characters to bring it all to life.Ĭole Escola’s Chassie Tucker (Photo Courtesy of TruTV)Īmy: Yeah, I had first worked with Cole on Difficult People. When we pitched the show, we basically just pushed the books across the table and said, this is what we’re trying to do. I love incorporating looks from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Was the intention to basically bring the books to life?Īmy: Oh yeah. Speaking of the books, I’ve noticed that the show looks very similar to them, even down to the color scheme. There weren’t any funny homemaking shows. But you know, there really was no blueprint for this kind of thing. So, we decided to add humor to it and add characters, which is a strength of both mine and Cole. And at first, I wanted to do it seriously, but that obviously wasn’t working out. And I really wanted to bring those to life with a homemaking show. How did this concept ever come to be?Īmy: Well, I did my two books, I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence and Simple Times: Crafts for Poor People. It’s part DIY-homemaking, part sketch comedy, and part sitcom. The format for the show is definitely a unique one. I had the chance to chat with stars Amy Sedaris and Cole Escola about the new season premiering May 20th, how the show came to be, and who is most likely to run away and join the circus. The show, which is like combining Martha Stewart with Saturday Night Live, sees Amy Sedaris playing multiple characters alongside talented actors like Cole Escola and a wide array of celebrity guests.
