00:00If Adam Scott could get severed for real,
00:02he would probably do it to forget he ever ate this many calzones.
00:06The calzones betrayed me?
00:09Adam Scott's character in Parks and Rec, Ben Wyatt,
00:11was unreasonably obsessed with calzones,
00:14so much so that he got the nickname Calzone Boy.
00:16Hey, Calzone Boy, what's up?
00:19Well, here's hoping that that nickname doesn't stick.
00:21Even though, as Leslie Note pointed out,
00:23it's just pizza that's harder to eat.
00:25Years after Parks and Rec has ended,
00:26Adam is apparently still haunted by his character's calzone obsession.
00:31I find calzones confusing.
00:35Why?
00:36And often when I go to Italian restaurants,
00:38they ask me if I would like to try the calzone.
00:42And sometimes calzones are sent over.
00:46And every time that happens, I text Mike Schur and I just say,
00:50again, thanks.
00:53He even had to taste test calzones on a recent episode of Hot Ones,
00:56with Severance co-star Patricia Arquette.
00:58You will now blindly taste test three calzones.
01:02It turns out, despite enjoying them one time in Italy,
01:05he doesn't even like calzones that much.
01:07But he's not the only cast member who's jokingly upset
01:10with a Parks and Rec storyline.
01:11Rashida Jones recently revealed that the producers
01:13once asked her to perform a scene
01:15that made her deeply uncomfortable.
01:17The episode Sweet 16 finds the Parks department
01:19visiting Donna's lake house.
01:21Tom learns that her cousin is in fact Grammy nominee,
01:24Ginuwine.
01:24While Tom is floored by the revelation,
01:26Anne has absolutely no idea who that is.
01:29And unfortunately, not loving 90s R&B
01:31is number three on Tom's Oh No No list.
01:34During a recent episode of Amy Poehler's podcast,
01:36Good Hang,
01:37Rashida Jones revealed how frustrating it was to film that,
01:40considering the fact that she is famously the daughter
01:42of late music legend Quincy Jones.
01:45You know, it's still one of my biggest complaints.
01:47I remember we did the table read for that.
01:50And I was like, no, no, no one's going to buy it
01:53because I don't buy it, okay?
01:55Pick anybody else on this cast to try to play that
01:59in an honest way.
02:00It is so unfair that you're making me do this.
02:03It really, yeah, it still hurts.
02:06Because how familiar are you with Ginuwine?
02:09We were married.
02:10Making matters even worse,
02:12Ginuwine's name was misspelled in the script.
02:14Ginuwine?
