The show, according to Vesga, goes beyond entertainment to delve into the realm of art by presenting different angles on human existence. Wydra's character, Zosia, argues that the Joining has eliminated various negative aspects of life, while Carol, played by Rhea Seehorn, emphasizes the importance of individual thoughts and emotions.
Wydra worked closely with the production team to accurately portray Zosia's emotional detachment, likening it to AI. Vesga's Manousos, an immigrant who faces loss and identity issues, undergoes a physical transformation and gains more depth in his character as the season progresses.
