I mean, everybody I met was like, oh, my God, I went in for the greatest part.
It's Amy's boss on our new show.
Oh, it must have been heartbreaking.
I would sob inwardly like, oh, cool.
It came down to where there were just a couple of us.
They were getting ready to start shooting.
She moved here from New York to L.A.
And they brought me and another guy in to improvise with Amy as the final audition.
And they taped them and then turned them into NBC.
And, you know, I did my best.
And Ron and Leslie were really born in that room that day because I had never worked with Amy before.
I had known her for a long time and was crazy about her.
But, like, she was like a comedy butterfly hopped up on uppers, like, just dancing.
comedy dynamo-ing around the room.
And I had no choice but to sit there and withstand her and then say like one pithy thing at the end.
And as though I had a choice, as though that was my comedic brilliance instead of just the only physical possibility.
