A now-archived discussion
with co-creator Edward Kay contains several insights and confirmations. Among them:
- Samy is a Starscream who would overthrow Lucius if he had the chance.
- Also on Samy: "I don’t think of him as either gay or straight, just someone with a pathetically desperate need to feel needed and more important that he is. He’s a typical fascist – cowardly and obsequious to those above him, and a tyrant to those "below" him."
- Heloise loves Jimmy because "there's something about sweet, innocent guys that appeals to the last shred of humanity in her".
- On the matter of her Ambiguously Human identity, he said that Heloise is "a bit of a shapeshifter".
- Lucius is a Reality Warper, which explains Miseryville's chaotic nature. He refuses to use his powers to their maximum potential out of pride.
- Edward Kay also confirmed that the actual pilot is but a simple animation test with the plot simply being Jimmy and Heloise going on a date (with Heloise trying to kill him during the whole thing).
- He also dispelled the common rumor that Charlie Schlatter and Jessica DiCicco were the original voices for Jimmy and Heloise respectively.
