Production
Scott Conroy and Peter Hamby were inspired to create the show by their own experience as embeds. They were following Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin for CBS News and CNN, respectively, on the 2008 campaign.
Filming took place in Iowa in 2016, before the presidential election.
All six episodes were directed by Danny Jelinek.
The series was originally planned to stream before election day, but ended up premiering on January 18, 2017.
