[which was season eight’s sixth episode]. My response was very sincere, “Maybe I should have put that script on.” and [executive producer] “It's already aired on TV,” Steve Levy said. I've now become my own Chevrolet chase. ”
Obviously, this is a new aspect of Harmon, who was very open before thr The struggle about his perfectionism and willingness to stop tinkering with an episode.
