oh, yes gravitas:This Is Usexecutive producers Elizabeth Berger and Isaac Aptaker to discuss Katie Girls.
We hope that everyone would consider the whole picture.
There are beautiful parts and there are heartbreaking parts in everyones life, and that includes Rebecca.

And that was clearly very much not what she wanted for herself.
When are we back in this early courtship phase?
Were very, very excited to be doing 70s Los Angeles.
Its going to be later this season.
Its not right away, but its coming up soon.
What can you hint about the guilt that Jack carried around from that?
The situation with Jacks mother is far from resolved.
APTAKER:Making that clean break, that first step is really the hardest part.
Its a very complicated situation.
Do you think Randall needed to apologize to Kate?
That scene didnt unfold like we thought it would.
On one hand, that implication that Randall doesnt have Jack in him is an incredibly hurtful one.
So as Isaac said, you really can see both points of views.
[Laughs]
Randall has decided he wants to run against Councilman Brown.
How realistic is that given that he doesnt even live in the state and has no experience?
Is the family moving into the building to establish residency?APTAKER:[Laughs] No.
Hes certainly good at a monologue.
APTAKER:And given that person hes running against has been in this position for over a decade.
Shouldnt rehabbing the building be enough to honor his fathers memory?
He has his hands full.
Doesnt he have enough challenges already?BERGER:Probably for most people it would be enough.
But I think for Randall there is always that little flicker of Whats next?
What ultimately am I supposed to be doing with my life?
Can I go further?
So thats where that little flicker is taking him now.
Yeah, sure, anythings plausible.
So much of the first two seasons, weve seen Beth is so incredible and is so solid.
Rebecca, who was a full-grown woman, had great difficulty approaching those topics.
And then Kevin was a bit of a selfish kid, especially as a teenager.
[Laughs] He had a lot going on.
He was very much all about Kevin, the football star, and then Kevin with the broken leg.
I dont think that the first thing you do is instantly get on a plane and go to Vietnam.
How would you go about it with very limited resources and very limited leads answering the questions?
So its a very practical approach to investigating a parents origin story.
You felt like you were in a dream.
The whole thing was just very like, Wait, what show is this?
And putting them in that iconic ice cream parlor together the whole thing was really exciting for us.
