give or take, Mike Schur was on Dan LeBatard's podcast and he was saying that first season, he was terrified everyday, that they were going to be cancelled. Like...he was just waiting for the call. He was like, I am going to be responsible for ruining Amy Poehler's career, lol. He said the reason they made it, is that the cast was just TOO good to fail.
