How many writers do you bring on, is one season 72 episodes?
Brandon Violette
No, so I think it was like 24 episodes for what we call the season, but really because Netflix, Netflix can package it however it wants. And so, they do drops. And so, it’s just for like scheduling purposes, we call it seasons, we group it this way, but they could do whatever they want, and group it however. And so, but the writers, approximately two writers in the room to staff writers and the script coordinator. So just like I was, who we gave scripts to, to write, and then you have a handful of freelance episodes that you could reach out to, and have other writers, some new writers, some experienced to write on the show as well. And so, you’re always kind of looking for just in case something happens, or someone moves on, or you want to find the people that know the show in case you need them need to step in, or you just find your ringers, the people that kind of know it. And so that was the writers room.
