Comedienne Geri Jewell was cast in the episode titled, Cousin Geri. She was the first individual to be cast on a series while having a disability, opening the conversation about performers who are disabled and what they are able to achieve.
Jewell recalled the night she performed at the Media Access Awards, “I got a standing ovation, and I ran into Norman in the elevator. He said, ‘You’ll be hearing from me really soon, kid.’ Three months later, he called me with the cousin Jeri episode, and I filmed it two weeks before Christmas that year.”
