Michael Schur on 'A Man on the Inside,' the Worst Ad Ever Made, and What Makes a Comedy a Comedy
Briefly

Schur mentioned, "We decided late in the game to name every episode after a famous spy story. My guess would either be Megan Amram, who has worked with me on various shows, or Dan Schofield, who was very good at that game." This choice adds a clever layer of wordplay and homage to the spy genre, showcasing their playful creativity in episode naming.
Reflecting on the themes of his new sitcom, Schur noted, "While 'A Man on the Inside' may not answer life's unanswerable questions like 'The Good Place,' it does tackle intimidating topics like aging, dementia, and death, all in an honest-to-goodness comedy. It's truly a sitcom and proud of it." This underscores his commitment to exploring serious issues within a comedic framework.
