“At the end of the season, as writers, we do this thing where we want so badly to get another season that we do a thousand cliffhangers so that Ted [Sarandos] and Bela [Bajaria] are just like, ‘Well, we got to know what happened, so let’s just pick it up,’” Running Point co-creator and executive producer Mindy Kaling explains at the show’s season two premiere. “At the beginning, it’s just like digging ourselves out of the hole of what we created, which is really fun.”
