Damien

Damien is one of the young writers orbiting the show's world, eager to prove himself in a room full of sharper elbows and bigger egos. He's earnest and a little green, still learning how to survive among comedy veterans who don't suffer fools, and hungry for a real seat at the table.

Mark Indelicato plays him with a nervy, open-faced sincerity that stands out against the show's more armored, joke-hardened characters. He's funny without being cynical, which makes him a useful mirror for the industry's older sharks — and gives the writers a fresh, less jaded voice to bounce their cruelty and wit against.
