In an interview with ''Metro'', Baynton explained his motivation: "The performing instinct came from making my family laugh, so I’ve always been drawn to the funny side of things. Comedy is really rewarding."

The series is co-produced by online television provider Hulu.com in the US where it premiered in November 2013.
