Sofia told GMANetwork.com why working with Jose, Maja, and Bossing is important to her. “I think lahat po halos ng artista, lalo na po si Bossing, goals talaga silang tatlo na maka-work. Lalo na kung, gusto mo talagang maging matagumpay na artista. Nasa bucket list mo talaga sila na maka-work, lalo na kung ang gusto mo na i-pursue is comedy. Kasi, when it comes to comedy, sila agad 'yung mga maiisip mo, e. Ang nagpasaya pa lalo to this sitcom [is] first sitcom po namin siya.”
