Series creator and executive producer Carlton Cuse said that the Orb represents faith and that depending on the intentions of those who use it, the object rewards or punishes them accordingly.

Cuse said getting Campbell " was just one of those collisions between an actor and a script that was just perfect ...

Praising Clemenson's work on Brisco, Cuse said, " You can't give him anything he's not capable of doing.

Cuse said that he and the writers enjoyed paying homage to the television star of their childhoods: " For us, it was like, ' Oh wow, we get to meet John Astin in the guise of employing him on this show!

Cuse said that he let such ideas flourish because of his relative inexperience with writing for television series.

Cuse said, " I think we did a particularly good job of maintaining continuity with all the schizophrenic notes we were getting from the network.

Cuse said that logistics were a problem because so many of the Hollywood Western sets and towns had been torn down by the 1990s.

Cuse said the vote " reaffirms for me a feeling I've had – namely that the Nielsens aren't accurately reflecting people's interest in this show ," adding that, given Fox's then relatively small share of the market, it was notable that the show got more votes than any of the programs from NBC, CBS, and ABC.

" When the US Senate discussed forcing broadcast and cable networks to regulate violent programming, Cuse said that self-regulation within the industry was a positive move.

Cuse spoke out against legislation to curb television violence, saying that politicians were " chasing a false objective.
