On March 13, 2020, it was announced that production on the second season was put on a two-week hiatus due to the coronavirus outbreak.[4] As was the case with most television series filming at the time, the break was extended until production resumed on October 19, 2020. It was also announced that Steve Carell had signed on to star in the second season as well despite his character's arc originally being intended for just one season.[5]
