What up, Stefan.
Hey, Stefan, I'm going to come to you first.
Sam, when I sat down to watch this, am I my wife came in
And she said, What are you watching?
I describe the show.
I'm going to describe it.
Oh, that sounds like a really good idea.
And that is the reaction I've had.
Everyone you talk to, they just go.
That sounds really good.
Is that how you first felt?
When I when I was pitching the show, I was like, That's a great idea.
All right.
You know, and it really is so unique.
A high school reunion murder
mystery whodunit where every retelling
of the story of the night's events is totally different genre of film.
But I like...
Even conceptually, it's a slam dunk.
But then you put in the cast of like this murderer's
row of like brilliant comedians and actors and
and Chris Miller
directing and writing, and Chris and Phil producing.
It's it's a it's a birthday cake of joy.
Oh, put that on the poster.
I was just going to say that exact sentence.
Yeah, I read. I read enough of your thing.
Oh, great.
Ben, I mean, there's lots of,
you know, sort of singing and dancing for you in this.
I'm just wondering because I mean,
I was a class clown at school and I was in the drama group
and I could stand on stage and do the most dramatic monologues ever.
But once I had to sing and I shat myself, I was so scared of seeing.
I think it taps into a different type of nerves.
And I just wondered if that was quite a nerve wracking experience for you.
You just unlocked a story that I haven't thought about in so long.
first of all, when I was in high school,
I was too afraid to audition for the musical I always wanted to.
I was in all the music groups.
I was an all county and madrigals
and all that stuff, but I was too nervous to audition
and then someone tell me I wasn't good and I would just I was too afraid to fail.
But but in the last maybe six years, I auditioned for a Broadway musical.
Someone asked me to come in and audition for a musical.
I was like, I can't do this. Like, You know what? I'm going to do it.
And I like, tried to learn the song beforehand, and when I went to audition,
I did the regular stuff first and it was fine.
It felt easy enough and then go, OK, let's get to the song.
And I was so nervous that my voice was shaking, so I'd be singing.
Oh, like it was.
So I was. I was shitting my pants.
You're right, it was so scary because it's something that I don't really do
like live in front of people that see the best singers in the world.
So it was I was so nervous.
But for this, it was so much easier because it was a recording booth.
I could get one out and then get comfortable with it
and find my voice in it.
So thank goodness, but you're exactly correct.
The idea of singing live
to whatever was terrifying, unless it's like a comedy
and I can make it jokey, but this one is supposed to be.
I'm not terrible at it. Just very quickly - Sam,
because I mean, obviously, Jamie [Demetriou] is from London.
He's heading over
to the heading over the pond and being a being a Brit in the US show.
And it's something you've done in reverse.
But it's quite rare, isn't it?
You'll get too many American comedians in British sitcoms.
I'm just wondering if it's something you guys would like to see more of
and if you something you'd like to do as well in the future.
I mean, I'd love to.
I would. I'd love to do it more and I'd love to do it.
I'd love to see other people do it because it's unfair, really.
You know, it's so one sided.
Yeah,
we I think it needs to be a tit for tat so easily forever.
There should be a tally for every UK actor who comes in the states.
There should be American actor who goes to England and
to Europe in general, and then they film something.
I'm putting it out there.
Let's have a tally system
like an exchange system.
It is
the comedy's first of all, and I would love to be in staff.
I would love to be instead.
And then I filmed a movie with Sam Rockwell in London.
And then also I remade The Wrong Mans in America.
So like, I took your format and tried to bring it here with Americans,
but I would love to do.
I had the best time living in England when I was over there.
So any any time Sam and I will do a show in English or whatever you guys want
whenever you want. I got so much family out.
There is a wonderful excuse to see that
I will be great because it means if we did a junket it wouldn't have to be on Zoom, so
much guys, much appreciate it.
Take care, man. Yeah, yeah.
