Quotes from Showrunner/EP Eric Robles as told to Tudum:

"We want the audience to feel that these kids are in danger, the stakes are real, and bad things can happen to anyone. And things do happen that are very scary in a sense, so that really makes the danger for the kids that much more tangible."

"We were able to freeze time and really go on these never before told adventures with them in this timeline."
