In a recent interview with IndieWire, David Stassen discussed the unexpected success of the basketball-themed comedy 'Running Point' starring Kate Hudson. Despite initial uncertainties about audience reception, the show garnered immediate popularity, becoming #1 on Netflix and remaining in the Top 10 for five weeks. Stassen credited the thorough development of the characters and story during production delays, while highlighting the collaboration with seasoned professionals and longtime colleagues. The response from viewers, including old friends and family, indicated that the show resonated widely, creating a solid viewer connection.
We felt like we had a great cast, and we had the benefit of a lot of time with the show before going to production, because of a delay in the room starting and then the writers' strike, I like to say the show just got to bake a little longer.
I never received more messages on Instagram or [from] people I went to college with I haven't talked to in 20 years - my mom's friends, my brother's friends, just the most random assortment of people.
