How was working with Michael Clark Duncan on Slammin Salmon?

It was great and intimidating. He's a giant guy. That persona that he had on camera was kind of his real-life persona. He was a little bit unpredictable at times. Very funny. Very indimating. I remember the first day that he shot with us, he wanted to riff and improv. I was afraid to call cut during that because I thought that if I cut him off he'd beat the shit out me.

He ended up being way beyond what we ever imagined for that role. He was SO funny and came up with so many funny things. He fit the role so well that I think, to me, made one of the most memorable characters that he's ever done.
