“If you look at old movies, they used to have these long takes. “My thing is just editing,” he explained. “But Murray watched it and he was proud of me. I don’t think Sal or Joe has yet,” he said. Have any of the other three Jokers had a chance to see his acting debut yet? “So it’s important to the mythology, and I’m like that’s pretty cool. “But it’s actually a fairly important role, because Dale fills out a police report that in the future, they use to track down Jennifer Goines,” Brian revealed. We’re just going to have fun with it and get you on the show. “You know what Terry really sold me on? He was like it’s a small part. “I hope that they bring him back,” he continued. It was way more helpful than being like ‘Dale grew up in Brooklyn…’ and stuff like that. That sounds obvious, but at the same time it’s not if you’re not an actor. Don’t wait to say your lines, listen to what she’s saying and respond to it. “I asked Todd Stashwick, who plays Deacon on the show, if he had any advice and he flat-out said just listen. “Me and Terry talked about it a little bit and he was like look, he’s a middle-aged, divorced douchebag whose wife probably left him for good reasons, and that was it,” he laughed.

Naturally, it’s a part where there’s not a lot of information given, so we asked Brian if he took it upon himself to fill in the blanks. When audiences meet Brian on 12 Monkeys he’s playing a hapless guy named Dale, who winds up having an incredibly awkward speed-dating moment with Jennifer. It was a great experience, but not anything like shooting a sketch with Sal at all.” “They really took their time with me and helped me out. “ Terry couldn’t have been nicer, couldn’t have been more supportive and Emily could not have been any more supportive,” he continued. I don’t want to mess up a show that I love with my presence, so it more nerve-wracking and I felt a lot of pressure. “For me to be there and try to be in a scene with her was very nerve-wracking. “A sketch with my friends is one thing, but when you plop me down in front of an actor – Emily Hampshire, specifically, who I had the scene with – who is on a show that I love, my only thing is I don’t want to mess this up,” he said.

But since the Jokers also have experience in sketch comedy – last year they even produced a short-lived sketch series called Jokers Wild – was it not so daunting for him to make the transition from comedian to actor? His 12 Monkeys scene might come as a surprise to people who only know him from his work on Impractical Jokers. “They picked up on it and asked me to be a part of it – which I was over the moon about!” That’s how I got involved in it, was as a fan,” he continued. I just love the show and I’m just a fan of the show from beginning to end. The actors are great, the writing is great, the production is great. “The storyline and mythology falls right into my sci-fi, nerd, kind of love of things. “It has all of the elements to make anyone a fan of it,” he said.
