While the entire original troupe returned for the prequel, Cooper was unable to reprise his role for the sequel series. Despite flopping at the box office, the original film went on to gain a loyal cult following, thanks in part to its cast of now-famous actors like Bradley Cooper, Amy Poehler, Elizabeth Banks, Paul Rudd, Janeane Garofalo, and Christopher Meloni. Scott's gift for playing ridiculous characters totally straight is in full effect, making this mental health unprofessional one of his most cartoonishly fun roles.Ī sequel series to the 2001 movie Wet Hot American Summer and the 2015 prequel show Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp, this 1991-set eight-episode Netflix production is a parody of classic reunion films like The Big Chill. A send-up of reality TV life coaches, Damien is terrible at his job and doles out nonsensical advice while double-booking clients.
Scott plays Damien Assante, an unlicensed therapist turned contestant who's hired in season 1 to help Marino's firefighter Mark Orlando navigate his feelings, but then returns for season 2 to compete for the heart of bachelorette Julie Gristlewhite (Raphael). Featuring a stacked cast of stars like June Diane Raphael, Kumail Nanjiani, Adam Brody, Kristen Bell, Ken Jeong, Michael Ian Black, and Jennifer Aniston, it's a delight to see these actors throw themselves into the absurd scenarios reminiscent of actual reality TV dating shows. Written and created by Erica Oyama, and co-produced, directed, and starring her husband - and Scott's Party Down costar - Ken Marino, this parody of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette will delight anyone who's ever watched a single rose ceremony.
