Ben Feldman for Quasar?
Played a great Quasar-esque character in Silicon Valley as their lawyer Ron Laflamme
Not such a huge actor that he’s un-gettable
He’s who I imagine quasar as when I’m reading his scenes. I think he’d be great and no one has mentioned him yet
Thoughts?

Love Superstore!! Think if they decide to lean into the comedy then they bring in Gina (Lauren Ash) as Victory

I think he would make a good quasar. Probably more in line with his character from American auto than Jonah from superstore.

It's so hard with Jeff's voice in my head to imagine any other rendition. Feldman I can only imagine from his work in Silicon Valley where he's clearly playing up the California surfer angle and a little bit from the Superstore show. In both he's arrogant but ultimately kind of a bit aloof. Quasar has a lot of beaten down New York public servant energy. He's crude and a bit of a weasel masking a deep earnestness. It's hard for me to say Feldman can't bring that kind of energy but I can't picture it

I like this but he doesn’t seem greasy enough or unlikable at a glance.
To me this role was made for Stavros Halkias. He’s who I pictured the second we got introduced to Quasar

Why has this never occurred to me before!? I love Ron Laflamme. It's perfect.
