>ok so after watching the panel all the way through, here's what I got from em (can't specify each person who said stuff nor is this in chronological order):-there was a skit where the plantars visited the gallery and they talked with the crew and it ends with them running away, thinking they were cultists.
-regarding spinoff ideas, Croaker's agent days, Polly's adventures, and Sprig's adventures pre-Amphibia were things they liked.
-purple theory had a big dent considering how Anne was a factor in it and her outfits were more or less done for aesthetic and consistency.
-the team had problems during the pandemic (we've seen this before but it was told as well). For Matt, it was specifically due to how there was an obstacle in deliberation and talking about the episode production themselves.
-at the earliest stage of development, Matt mentioned OTGW-style as a one-season show so Grime could've very much been the final antagonist at that point.
-Hop Pop was originally supposed to be more of a sourpuss due to the danger.
-The show was supposed to be much darker, with the palette being mostly brown.
-The Plantar house originally did not have a city near it, implying that Wartwood was supposed to be a wee bit farther.
-Hop Pop said "Grime, I love you".
-Matt and the VAs were asked about which emotional scene stood out to them. Excluding the finale, the Reunion hug at the top of the tower, the Hopping Mall parents scene, Sprig falling in TC, and Hop Pop's scenes during the zapapedes in Taking Charge were mentioned.
-Matt wants the biggest takeaway from the show for the fans to be about how it was always Anne's journey and the plantars.
-Regarding Sasha and Marcy's life pre-Amphibia (including dynamics), Matt said to just wait, other than the decision of having the story focus on Anne.
-other show-related easter eggs that were cut will be discussed by Matt after the show ends.
