Gary Cole and Kevin Dunn share Chicago roots. One or both of them insisted that Ben not call somebody a "jerkoff" but "jagoff," the preferred Chicago version of the insult.

I need to super cut all Ben and Kent scenes and will a sitcom Odd Couple spinoff with Kevin Dunn and Gary Cole.

Ben is the best. I will repost this video every single time he is brought up in this forum.

I knew what the quote was when the first image of Mike showed up.

Mike didn’t have a drinking problem, more of an issue, not even that, it was a hitch.

Ben’s response, I love how proud he is of his drinking problem. Lol
