“Hal and Harper are two kids who didn’t get to be kids because of a childhood trauma. Conversely, this also means that they never got to stop being kids, as their stunted young selves became frozen in time. There’s a Wes Anderson-esque feel to this idea of childhood pain calcifying into adult dysfunction, and that influence can also be felt in the show’s deadpan humor, as exemplified by a couple of quick-cut sight gags early on.”
