“Rodeo clown came first. For self-centered reasons I knew I wanted to play somebody bitter and angry,” Zach expressed about his character (via WSJ). “And the pretentiousness of doing it at a French clown college made Louis C.K. and I laugh. The show at first was going to be a behind-the-scenes of ‘Between Two Ferns,’ but I couldn’t make that work in my head.”
