roundtable interviews to bring you from the cast and crew of Skeleton crew. And guys, this was so much fun. These ones. It's so fun. And we just finished. Really, I'm talking about like buzzing. I'm really talking about kids. We had two roundtables today. The first one was with the executive producers, showrunner, directors, writers, John Watts, and Chris Ford. And like, you know, that was great. That was good. That was fun. It was amazing. It was great. They were so gracious and it was great. But obviously we're very, very excited to talk to the kids, the actual skeleton group, you know? You say we were excited. We were so nervous to talk. I was nervous. Yeah. I was nervous.

for kids, and that a show like Skeleton Crew takes its kids and their stories seriously. Why is it
