Didn’t Andy say he talked to Wallace over Skype, and then Erin mentioned how he never talked to her? I guess he did a good job of hiding the beard.

Oh. Here’s an interesting tidbit that I didn’t see mentioned here when Brian first came on the scene. The actor who plays Brian, Chris Diamantopoulos, appeared as Moe in the Farrelly Brothers Three Stooges movie. I wouldn’t have guessed that was him.

You have made that point. Stop threadshitting. Now.
