Olsen told Rotten Tomatoes that while it was certainly one of the most fun projects to work on, it was also simultaneously one of the hardest jobs because of how often everything like camera lenses and lighting had to change to adhere to the decade.
"We really wanted to be authentic," Shakman told The Hollywood Reporter. "We wanted to make sure that it didn't cross over into satire or spoof. This wasn't a parody. So we basically did everything we could. We recreated everything from vintage lenses, production and costume design, to the actors getting together with me and studying what those old shows looked like."
