Evan claimed that this was the culminating episode after weeks of bizarre and irrational behavior from Nicol Williamson, the star of the production.

    • Evan: (about the Three Stooges) As a kid, I was somewhere between indifferent to and frightened of the Stooges. I just thought they were creepy and weird. But in my late teens and early 20s, coming home after drinking and smoking pot, I found them hysterical. Absolutely hysterical!
    • Evan: (about being Jewish) It's a heritage; in a cultural, not a religious way. That means knowing the history, knowing the general ideas and why they mean so much to people.
    • Evan: (On "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip") Each time I sat down to a table read, I thought the script was fantastic. But from the first time I saw the pilot, I thought, "I don't think this is an engaging television show." I think that some of the brilliance of Aaron [Sorkin]'s dialogue can mask maybe some weaknesses. A lot of the show came across as a philosophical debate.
