I highly recommend watching this series if you haven't seen it yet! The show's clever writing and endearing characters make it a must-watch, even though it's not a comedy. If you've gone through the loss of a loved one, you might find it particularly relatable. Harrison Ford's recent involvement in television/streaming projects, including 1923 and Shrinking, is thrilling to see. As for me, I'm a huge fan of the show!

With this interview I get to learn McMullen's decades of experience in the industry have given him a deep understanding of the technical aspects of production design. Production design is an underappreciated part of the tv and film industry. We get the complete visual experience for the show's narrative thanks to show's unique premise and visual style. McMullen's dedication to the story is what drives his decision to take on a project or not and it shows his passion based from what I saw in the episodes.

The collaboration with the cast and crew of Shrinking was crucial in bringing the show's vision to life. This probably one of his easiest job since its set to reality. Compare that to Supergirl which has a sci fi fantasy setting but the budget is low.

I don't know who he is but its shocking he worked for many movies and shows that I had watched. He is an unsung hero.
