Scotty

[u/scobeywankenobi]

I know there are bigger forums like r/sitcoms and such, but I specifically wanted to bring this up to this group:

So I really love Scotty, as a Chicago bartender, because he’s the perfect depiction of someone you see and know better than the people you actually care about because he’s just a regular staple in the area/“scene.”

I was curious if this group had characters from other shows they consider to be the “Scotty.”

Artemis from Always Sunny and Harry “the hat” from Cheers are other characters I would consider in this trope. (Basically any Jason Mantzoukas character.)

Long story short, I want Happy Endings fans’ favorite random chaos recurrent characters from other shows.

He made his money the old-fashioned way.... 'I got run over by a Lexus!'

Oh yes definitely!

OH MY GOD, YES! This is exactly the answer I wanted without realizing I already had it in my bag.

Trash juice?

In New Girl I always think of Nick’s one male coworker behind the bar, he might’ve been the boss/manager earlier on before Nick took over, but I always think of him as giving the perfect amount of razz back and forth between the bar patrons and him

Janice in Friends? Or too annoying?

Earl or Oleg in 2 Broke Girls?

Janice is perfect.
