It was the video. She's the biggest This Is Us fan.
Yeah, yeah. And we try to get the show up on its feet. And then the show has a life of its own. Because creating the world is the fun part, the style. For me, at least. But we were, you know, Parenthood was going off the air. Right. And we were like, oh, well, we were doing our pilot. Maybe we can get that little slot of the family show. Yeah.
And Dan and Glenn and I were making jokes on set about dramedy con. Like, oh, this show's going to be a giant hit. It's going to be drama. Like, making fun of the fact that nobody watches dramedy in large numbers. It's not going to be a thing. Right. And then, and we were like, and then the show came out and it was very successful. And we're like, what, who knew?
No, no, we thought we were going to get our, we wanted our little corner of TV to do our, the things that we love, which is dramedy, you know, dramatic comedy. And, and we were like, oh, we just want our little corner of Hollywood to do our thing with Dan and Dan and us. And then, and then it came out and America was hungry for this show. We didn't even know.
I mean, because the joke about Dramedy Con was that it was like, because that's like, you know, all the only thing that's popular is things that have like conventions like Marvel and like, you know, they're like and like there's going to we're going to do Dramedy Con because that's such a ridiculous concept. It's a really good idea.
Yeah. We were like, and this is just stuff we were doing.
Cameron Crow-a-thon. Yeah. And so we were joking about it. And then Dan had to leave town. And he says, can you guys take over? We're going to do, what is that? Paley Fest. The Paley Fest.
at the theater where they do the Oscars, at the Kodak Theater. And we walk out with the cast and it's packed with thousands of people and they're all on their feet. And I'm like, and I'm texting with Dan. I'm like, Dan, it's dramedy con.
That's his love language. He's excellent at it.
It is his love language. I'll come in. I came in the other day, or this is a while ago, and I was crying about how much I love my wife. And most people would be like, any of you would go, oh, that's so sweet. And he was just like, oh, you. Wimp. He came after me so hard. And you just love him for it. Yeah, that's him. I mean, he's got this unbelievable reservoir of emotion. He does.
And his stuff, it's just so lovely and warm. But even when we're doing a thriller, you know what I mean? Yeah. But it's just like he likes that.
Well, he just likes it. You know, I remember one, it's just something funny. I don't know if you'll think this is funny. I remember once we were like, oh, we're working with Tina Fey. Yeah. She's really great. She's probably the funniest person I've ever met. And he was like, what?
Well, that's the thing about him. We'll see about that.
Yeah, I can see that.
And then I have a different answer. Well, my answer is, you know, everything we do is collaboration. We're a team. And so we don't get coffee without collaborating. You know what I mean? So that, we just try to open,
that world of collaboration and bring people in and join us in the collaboration and try to find the strength of the collaboration, you know, and make people feel welcome to share their ideas. And I mean, cause I just think things get better.
Somebody has to be there to, the buck has to stop somewhere, obviously, otherwise you're never going to make your day, you know, but, but you, but you know, that's just, that's everybody bring your ideas, you know, let's play, let's play.
You're like a strong, lovable guy.
You're like, oh, there it is. Yeah. Remember on Paradise? I said, that's as positive as you get. Yeah. You remember that?
And so when we're trying to create a new character, we're just...
