Themes of wynonna earp season 1 tv#
Inside a beloved TV show ‘back from the brink’ I don’t want to oversell it, but I feel like we need to reward the people who have stayed with us with something that is a moment of love and joy after such a hard fight both on and off-screen.
But it is still so worth it to fight for your moment, to fight for what you want, to fight for someone who gets you. I wanted to leave these characters in a place where they saw that happiness and joy is worth fighting for. And weirdly, I hoped it was a gift for the cast - both the wedding and the Doc-Wynonna story. But in my heart, I just felt like we couldn’t risk it for the audience. I might have drawn out the suspense, drawn out the drama. You kind of have to write as if you’re already dead and just be like, “maybe we can do a trivia night with a cannibal.”Īt what point did you know that the wedding was how you wanted to end this season?Īndras: I will be honest, I think if I had known for sure that we were going to have another season, I might have risked delaying the wedding. You can’t constantly hum and haw your chances or you’ll just never get out of that paralysis. You have to honestly write the absolute best story you can, hopefully give the cast the best stuff to perform, make it fun, make it stuff they haven’t tried before - that’s all you can do. Good luck.” I felt like that wouldn’t be fair this time given how hard the fans had rallied for us, so I just wasn’t willing to take the same chance.īut you can’t write from a place of fear at the end of the day. I was determined one way or another to make sure that it was emotionally fulfilling in a way I hadn’t been in previous seasons where I was like, “I am 100% ending on 116 cliffhangers and I dare you to cancel us. But my gut told me that I had to make sure Season 4 was satisfying for the fans, our Earpers who had worked so hard to bring us back after our financial troubles after Season 3. I 100% did not know and it’s been a real rollercoaster.
Had you already known this when you started the season? Did this influence the arc?Īndras: I did not know. Before the mid-season premiere, there was an announcement that these would be the last episodes on Syfy. The conversation has edited for clarity and condensed.
Andras and Scrofano discussed the finale, Wynonna’s Season 4 struggles and more with The Times.
