This came about when we were shooting more Breaking News, but the cast was being pulled in a million different directions with Dropout, so we branched out a little farther than usual to find people who might want to write a script. This was from a friend of Grant's, who also knows that Grant is an EXCEPTIONALLY good sport about being roasted, and that Grant had final cut on the episode in case it went too far. Grant did not lose a bet, he is just very, very committed to a good joke, even when it's at his expense.

1. Because he plays a lot of characters that combine sincerity with child-like delight in simple pleasures. A precious combo.

2. It has to be undeniable true for one. No, "well you could make an argument to the contrary." Hard facts. But it also can't be so specific that even fans of the property would be lost. And it should be surprising in some way. The ideal, then is something that would have been certain was true, but once you hear the correct answer you realize that the original statement was undeniably, inarguably false.

3. Even though I KNOW the game is bullshit and doesn't matter, I STILL got annoyed if I felt a statement was just slightly on the wrong side of "too pendantic"

Thanks for watching!

The plan was to never have an end. When we shot those Pat had already moved to NY and was just back in LA for a few days. We shot all of them in one day, and the intent was to drop them at the end of any sketch that mentioned Pat, then maybe shoot some more in the future, and keep it a perpetual cat and mouse thing. Like a mini-Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner dynamic. No matter what happened it would have had no satisfying ending at all.

I hate getting burned on a wrong pronunciation. I'm absolutely wrong, and you're absolutely right, but I haven't always seen the thing I'm talking about and the spelling is insane.
