… Wouldn’t everyone’s heads explode? Anyway, I thought that was a way for Gloria-who’s trying to play the very heteronormative part that was asked of her back in the day and trying to make excuses-I thought I could see her trying to convince the director, “No, guys, if we’re going for verisimilitude, I would be wearing a helmet.” So it’s really just to get her out of having to kiss an alien guy, so he kisses the glass.

Scardino: I’ve always loved “ Oops!… I Did It Again.” I always thought it’s funny that Britney Spears is on Mars and no one’s wearing a helmet. That one was a challenge that ended up being an undefinable music style that was somewhere between girl pop, dance club, Sade, oversexualized ballad.

Richmond: We only needed a snippet in the body of the episode, but we decided, “Oh, we’ll write a full song of that.” And that was tricky because then we had this one idea about “Space Boys,” it was just, “Whatever, we’re going to go into space, it’s a space odyssey, and we’re going to find boys in outer space.” It sounds funny, but then you have to sustain it for 2½ minutes. It’d be closer toward the second half, to reenergize the song. That’s supposed to be a little departure, but it actually falls within the first third of the song, which in typical pop music structure, it wouldn’t.

The bridge of that song is when Sara steps forward and says, “We’ve got the kind of birth control that goes in your arm.” And then Gloria says, “Tell me again why Tarantino’s a genius.” That’s the bridge. “How can we get this song to be a full-length song?” Which is why the bridge of that song is in such an odd place. Peacock agreed, “We’re going to put it in the credits.” Then Meredith and I had to go back in and start conceptualizing. Richmond: “Dream Girlfriends” was a very short song, and it only lived in what you see in the episode itself, which is a minute, but that was going so well, it would be great at the end of that episode if we could actually hear more of that song. Let me get my ballad-y thing that really shows off their voices and then has a lot of lyrics about them being these dream girls, but from the perspective of all the men that wrote the songs and propped them up. Scardino: I had that idea of “Dream girlfriends, because our dads are dead,” beating around in my head, and I thought, Oh, that would be fun to write.

I didn’t think the song was going to be super sophisticated. I thought they were given scratch that was kicking around these pop factories. Scardino: The influence was always, yes, Spice Girls, but also a step down from Spice Girls, because I felt like they were a group that was thrown together because Spice Girls was so big and it was this opportunistic manager who thought, “Hey, I can do that,” in a Lou Pearlman way. And we know that we have the one that can belt out and riff. They all get a verse, and they all get to come together for the big hooks. The sassy one, the hot one, the sporty one. Everybody gets to have their turn and sing their verse, and their verses come from their character, or at least the way we personified their characters. I think the one thing you can look at, especially the Spice Girls and how Girls5eva is reflective of them, is that it’s team-driven pop music. Britney Spears, Destiny’s Child, and certainly Spice Girls.
