The show ended up putting production on hold while its star underwent treatment.

After her cancer battle, Dreyfus’ co-star, Reid Scott, told ET Online, “Honestly, if we never came back to work, as long as she was OK, that’s all we cared about.”

Since wrapping filming for the season, Dreyfus said, “The experience that I’ve had on this show has been sublime, and I consider myself to be very lucky. [It was] really an unsurpassed creative journey. It was a huge labor of love. It took a lot of hard work, I’m not saying it was easy. But at the end of the day, it was just chock-full of joy.”
