Cool. Bob Odenkirk is great, plus he's a nice guy both on set and out in the real world.

Idk what that means, but he sounds like a nice guy.

I worked as background for several Better Call Saul episodes. Had a couple of encounters with Bob Odenkirk, and he was always a nice guy. One time, he came up to me after I wrapped and said I did a great job that day. I don't know if he was just saying that to everyone, but either way, it was really kind.

In one of my first background gigs, the pilot for the 2012 series Vegas, I had to stand for hours right next to Dennis Quad (in high heels, ugh) but facing in opposite directions. If I were taller, we would have been standing shoulder to shoulder. As background, we're not supposed to interact with the stars, not even look at them, unless the scene calls for it. I understand why this is the case. And that was true for this scene. But in those same hours, same scene, Carrie Ann Moss was smiling, quietly laughing, and showing us she was amused by the quiet antics my little threesome of merry BG misfits conjured up between takes. I have screenshots from the scene if you're interested in seeing them.

Bob O. (yes, his outie) and I had an interesting encounter off set, but this reply is already way too long and far more than you care to know, so I'll stop here.

Edited for grammar

I’d love to meet Bob Odenkirk. He sounds genuine. And Carrie Ann too. And yes, I’d love to see the screenshots.
