ホールマーク・チャンネルのドラマ『ザ・ウェイ・ホーム』の共同ショーランナーが、全4シーズンを通じて、一家がタイムトラベルする池の起源が明かされなかった理由を語った。
共同ショーランナーのアレクサンドラ・クラークとヘザー・コンキーは、池の仕組みを明かすことは、その魔法のような要素を奪い、物語をサイエンス・フィクションの領域へと過度に押しやる結果になっただろうと述べた。
クラークとコンキーは、池をむしろ家族の歴史や共有された悲劇を癒やし、新たな視点を得るためのツールとして位置づけていた。
シリーズの最終回では、アリスとキャットが再び時間移動を行い、物語は結末を明確にしないまま終わる。クラークは、二人が新たな冒険に出ることで「終わりは始まりに過ぎない」という考えを強調したと述べた。
ショーランナーたちは、異なる時代を超えて築かれた関係性を経て、家族のタイムトラベルの物語が今後も続いていくことを強調したかったのだという。
