“[It’s] a time period that I knew very well, so that was enticing,” Phillips says. “Liz was very clear, and I agreed with her 100%, that we really wanted it to be about setting the time and picking the big ticket songs… It was about the bigger songs that everyone remembers from the radio, to really encapsulate that time period.”
The song by Alabama in Episode 1 [“I’m in a Hurry ”], we knew that was one of her favorite songs. It’s also documented that she listened to a lot of hip-hop and rap, so we leaned into that for a lot of the music. In Episode 4, “Firework” by Katy Perry is used masterfully as Walgreens VP Jay Rosan listens to it in his car before meeting with Theranos, and quotes its lyrics at the end of the episode. How did that come to be, and was it meant to be on the radio or was he listening to it on CD?
It was the brainchild of [director] Michael Showalter, who I loved working with. We knew it was going to be a difficult clear, we knew we were going to be doing these parody lyrics, so I actually asked my contacts for what kind of songs from this time period would be OK with poking fun. So we sent Liz and Michael a handful of songs and they picked “What I Like About You.
Dylan Minnette’s character, Tyler, performs an original song for Elizabeth at her 30th birthday party. He’s obviously musically talented as he has his own band, Wallows — did Dylan write that song and how did that concept come to be?
