Tell us about how your show started?

I'd been writing a series about aliens living in Niagara Falls, but it was clear that I was in over my head on both the writing and production side. So I brainstormed ideas for a show that would be more episodic, and easier to produce, and came up with "fairy-tale hospital show".. It turned out to be exactly as complicated as the abandoned Niagara project.

Special Guests: David Allen, Maggie Allen, Max Baskin, and Thomas Sixten.
