=== Dana Shaw ===
The producer, eventually promoted to character.
{{quote| "[I'm going on camera] because you need me to. I mean, Tom, you're... pretty hopeless. You're ''really'' hopeless, actually. You're like a lost little puppy, and whenever someone tries to help you out, you crap on the rug and bite their baby. But, see, that's where ''I'' can come in. I can be there with the rabies shots, and the carpet cleaner... and your incompetence means that I can actually make a difference here." }}
