Musical, yes. Which was a crazy musical. Alan Menken did the music. And then that dovetailed into a show called Grandfathered. Yeah. So we just had this nice run of doing some really fun stuff. But I had always been in comedy.

And then Dan did Pitch and This Is Us the same year. And he was like, Koch, why don't you come do some drama? I'm like, they're not going to let me do drama. I'm a comedy guy. You know how they are.
