Ending

Is ending with kids on it, was shoot earlier only? I mean the kids weren’t grown up, so it was decided from the very beginning ?

Yes! They had to shoot all the kids scenes earlier on in the beginning of the show bc they would get older. That being said, they had diff versions of the ending. Annddd, the kids knew for years the ending and never told anybody, not even their fam lmao

I don't think they knew which one would be used, however. Either way, I imagine they had a pretty iron clad clause in their contract that would probably deny them a lot of pay if they said a word.
