Q: How did you get involved in the show? - Ahmed Mori
A: Joe Roth, who runs Revolution Studios which is where the movies were made, said he wanted to do a third movie. I really wasn't interested in doing that role again on - as a feature. So he said, you know, 'I've got another idea.' He said, 'What if we took it to TV? Are you interested in producing?' That really kind of turned me on especially when he said that he had talked to Ali LeRoi and we were thinking about Terry Crews - it just kind of all came together. It was like a no-brainer. TBS who had done these shows with Tyler Perry so well - it was the perfect place for a sitcom like Are We There Yet?
Q: What did you like so much about being an - a process of being an executive producer? Is there something that's different in terms of the rewards of it? - jane doe
A: Well, just being a producer, period. It allows me to work on multiple projects and be really in the mix, you know, where the decisions are being made. And the shape of the show and, what we're trying to do. It's a little tricky with ten episodes, hopefully we'll be able to really dig in there and do some very, very interesting television.
Q: What's been your most memorable experience in working on the show so far? - Ahmed Mori
A: Just going out and getting with the cast for the first time on the set. We're shooting in Connecticut. And, after talking about this thing but to actually come together and start shooting, Episode 1. I think we're all going to remember that time, especially if we get picked up. I think we're all going to remember the first day because, if we get picked up, after we get going it's definitely going to just be a memory.
