took to the virtual stage after premiering the season 2 trailer during CTAM to tell us that the series will still retain its humor, but expect a tinge of darkness.
She continued, “Those darker feelings started introducing themselves at 13 years old and we felt that could be real, honest and dark and also funny and magical. The fact that Maya and I got to have that story integrate with the fantasy of being witches and trying to control things and fix it — it was a really exciting unity of dark and crazy.”
As Konkle and Erskine play versions of their 13-year-old selves, they talked about how revisiting this age has given them new perceptions of themselves while they were in middle school. Erksine added to that. “You can have a certain perception of yourself and a memory of how you were like,” she explained. “Any time I describe myself at that age, I’m a complete outcast, barely had any friends, in pain and miserable… and then I look at yearbooks and I see these comments that are postitive.” She said that many people saw her as happy which was not what she was feeling on the inside.
