Creator / Seth Green

"[...] Every day when I have a really important meeting with, like, ten or twelve gathered heads of department and I'm explaining in detail the difference between the 1982 Snake Eyes and the 1984 Snake Eyes and how critical that's going to be for this skit… I just have to laugh."
