Rob opened up about how the trolling led to the Netflix series during an April 2023 interview on The View. “The only thing that a parent has ever liked their kids doing on social media clearly happened to me. He trolled me, and it became a TV series. He would make fun of me. People liked it. I liked it, and he came to me and said, ‘Dad, I wonder if there’s a show here.’”
“Over a few months, he tried to figure it out, and this is what we’ve come up with, and it’s been super fun,” he added about the experience he had with his son during filming the series.
Back in 2018, Rob also talked about being a father “Raising those guys has been my favorite thing I’ve ever done, They’re just great kids. Sheryl and I were both lucky that we had the wherewithal to spend a lot of time with them and be really involved and it’s paid off.” he told Today.

John Owen told PEOPLE about his role model “When you consider what he went through in his 20s, his meteoric rise and some turbulence, and being in the public eye for decades. To come out a family man, a really, really good father, a really, really strong husband, and just a fun, kind guy to be around, that’s the day-to-day example he sets.”
Lowe then appeared in the Netflix comedy series Unstable along with his dad for which he was also an executive producer. The script of the series was inspired by both father and son relationships on social media.
Lowe told The New York Times “The proximity to my dad was driving me insane, the idea of never escaping his shadow. I had a weekly phone call with my manager and agent where they basically served as de facto therapists.”
“I would say, “I’m going crazy. I’ll never separate from him. Is this my destiny?” They would laugh at my pain, but I thought to myself, maybe there’s something interesting here, like, this might be a show. Then we got Victor Fresco involved, who really helped us structure it.” he added.
“Your parents, no matter who they are, always just bug you. Always. Even when you’re an adult. Your relationship changes as you get older and your parents become more like your friends but they still bug you. As they should.” John Owen told Men’s Health in March 2023.
