""I thk 's jt a human story, " Richman told Out about craftg the seri wh a gay male lead alongsi Star. "We happen to be gay and so we created a romantic edy wh a gay lead, but the gist of the story is 's a human beg that's gog through a very trmatic event and tryg to put his life back together over eight episos.
""I thk the dience is out there jt to want to see this story, a big mastream dience, not jt a niche, not jt a gay dience, but we wanted to make the show feel like his life and his issu are universal that everybody, gay or straight, male or female, is gonna relate to his emotnal journey, " Star add.
