One of the things that we love most about our comedy [ American Reunion] is that it goes all-out.

I think 'Oz' is the type of show that makes you turn away in fear and in horror, so for a television show, that's pretty intense.

We were with Hayden Schlossberg enormous fans of that first American Pie. We were in college when it came out, and we watched it over and over and over again.

When you start and you're taking the character seriously, it's going to lead down a variety of paths.

A lot of our favorite comedies in general are usually directed by writers, whether or not they wrote the original script themselves.

That's the fun of going to a high school reunion: it's seeing the people who you were close to all those years ago, and re-exploring the relationships of the past.

When we approached the project, the very first thing we did was take each character and say, "Okay, where would this character be?" We didn't want them to be caricatures of themselves. We wanted them to live and breathe, and grow with the audience and with us.

For us, we just start with the character. We think of Stifler, and that usually just leads to something that's outrageous.
