It's not David.

It couldn't be farther from David Rose.

That's right.

Um, it was, you know, I, I, it wasn't even a conscious thing.

I think it was just curiosity.

I wanted to do something different.

I never get the opportunity to be part of a crime thing.

I've, you know, I, it's just not, I guess what people see me as.

So part of what was exciting to write the show.

And when I thought about like, well, you know, when you commit to TV, it's a lot, it can potentially be a long journey.

Exciting journey, but a long journey.

You better like what you're writing.

Otherwise, you're in trouble.

And the idea of finding a way through both comedy and crime felt really exciting to me because it's so far from my comfort zone.

The idea of being blackmailed into organized crime is a horrible phobia that I have.

That is the most specific phobia I've ever heard of in my life.

Generally speaking, I hate being trapped in things.

So the concept of being blackmailed into organized crime, you are stuck.

You're not getting, the chances of you getting out of that situation, it's not good.

And if you're me in that situation, you're done.
