The episode’s director, Joss Whedon, even shut down production because he didn’t like one of the watercolor paintings.
Whedon felt strongly that a drawing of a church shouldn’t have been in the lineup because it wasn’t true to Pam’s character.
“He said, ‘Brent, in my experience, as a director, every single time that I have felt strongly about some detail of the shoot and I have allowed myself to be persuaded out of it because of time pressure — 100% of the time, I have intensely regretted making that choice,'” Forrester recalled Whedon told him.
