Welcome to the Up Here Down Low, where we look behind the scenes of the new Hulu musical romcom Up Here! We know that Hulu released all eight episodes at once, but we like to do things a little more traditionally around here. What can we say? We’re romantics! Every week we’ll be talking with the cast, crew, and creators of the show about how they make musical TV magic.

This week we talk with co-creators and songwriting power couple Bobby Lopez and Kristin Anderson-Lopez about how much of the show is based on their real life love story, the process of collaborating with a partner, and of course, the stories behind the songs we hear in episode one. And we talk with stars Mae Whitman and Carlos Valdez about their own meet cute, how they relate to their characters, and what it was like preparing for the show.

Hosted by Madison Cross and Julian Goza.
