Many were from the cast’s and writer’s family, friends, and acquaintances' personal experiences.

There were many rituals in the celebration, some of them were included in the show, some were not. One that was not included was the traditional hand-painted cardboard sign on the mantle that read, “FUCK FASCISM.
