Josh praised Freeform, the American cable channel that aired the program, and said they were a ‘dream to work with’ and ‘sincerely progressive’.
‘I’m so grateful we got a platform to make this show,’ the comedian continued. ‘I love them and they are obsessed with me, I hope we get another chance to work together.’
‘The show has been such a special experience,’ he added. ‘I got to learn so much about the world and myself while making it.’

The series was unique in that it brought the experiences and issues of those on the autism spectrum to the spotlight.
Josh’s co-star Kayla Cromer, who has autism, played the role of Matilda, one of the half sisters, who is a high school senior with the developmental disorder.
Josh revealed in early April that he is also on the autism spectrum.
After announcing the cancellation of the show, the actor later revealed in his Instagram Stories that he’s already working on a new project.
