Oh and I watched Sunnyside, looks promising

It figures a Mike Schur show would have a monologue about baseball.

I think Michael's definitely been replaced but Vicki or whoever just biding her time.

The show starts off with a recap of the skin suit and the gang even talk about how they don't get why the Bad Place would try something so obvious.

The show would never undercut a scene as heartfelt as Michael's pep talk to Eleanor by having it not actually be Michael.

I'm fairly confident the show's thesis statement was not delivered by Vicki in a Michael suit.

Didn't Michael say he's 6,000 feet tall? The Gateway Arch in St. Louis is 600 feet tall, and it doesn't glow. Even on a somewhat hazy day, you can see it over 10 miles away. I would imagine that something made of fire that was 10 times taller would be harder to miss.

According to the podcast, in the writer's room one of the writers objected to Michael's true form being 6,000 feet tall because that makes him ten (ish? I don't remember the actual factor) times taller than Godzilla.

Megan Amram is the guest on Mike Schur's podcast, the PosCast. They talk about Megan's baseball knowledge (nonexistent), and then she tries to come up with Houdini puns. Somehow this takes an hour and a half.

Uhhh because they're in heaven??? What would a giant deadly fire squid be doing in any reasonable version of heaven

Any instance of heaven that doesn't include a 6,000 foot tall fire squid is no heaven I want to be associated with.

The podcast confirms that yes, they went back and added that line after Foles got hurt.

Honestly a little surprised Jason didn't press the button and erase earth at the end there. I guess he still might have.

According to the podcast, in one take he destroyed the prop by dropping it on the floor.

Also, Olyphant was wearing a hat he kept from shooting Justified.
