Memories from the Set: Adam Scott Reminisces about "Veronica Mars/I]"
by Megan Masters
7/5/13
Up until fairly recently, Adam Scott lived a very dramatic life… on screen, at least.
The "Parks and Recreation" star — who nowadays is known for his memorable comedic turns in projects like "Party Down", Step Brothers and the Web series-turned-E! hit "Burning Love" – was once, for lack of a better term, quite the drama king.
From crippling injuries on "ER" to unexpectedly career-defining roles on short-lived sudsers like "Wasteland" to unrequited love on "Six Feet Under", the early ’90s section of Scott’s resume is filled with heart-wrenching performances.
It wasn’t until the late 2000s that Scott found his groove as a go-to guy for all things funny.
At TVLine’s request, Scott offered up behind-the-scenes insights on an abundance of his pre-"Parks" performances.
"[I]Veronica Mars":
Scott's "Mars" gig may have been short, but it was certainly sweet.
"Rob Thomas and [producers] Dan Etheridge and John Enbom are really good friends of mine, so that role was just fun," he tells us, laughing: "I was the gross teacher who had an affair with Leighton Meester."
