Kevin Sussman

You had Rachel Dratch from SNL.

You had, I think, Kevin Sussman from Glee.

I think I'm saying his name correctly.

And it was great.

And he was also on SWAT, Twister, and Black Hawk Down.

And then finally, there's Kevin Sussman, who played Phil.

He's from FBI.

Tons of episodes of Big Bang Theory, and he was also on Ugly Betty.

What's going on, everybody? Welcome back.

I'm Fraser, your host, and today we're taking a look at Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, the 2026 series created by Chuck Laura, Bill Prady, and Zach Penn, and starring Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus, Brian Posen, and John Ross Bowie.

And as always, we're answering one simple question.

Is it worth your time? Let's get into it.

And Stewart is the perfect anchor for that.

He first turned up way back in season two.

And by the later seasons, Kevin Sussman had been made a series regular.

So we were seeing him constantly.

All right.

I had this crazy idea that Kevin Sussman, who I was always a huge fan of, was, you know, had things worked out differently, he would have been Wolowitz.

Yes.

Literally.

Right, and we actually get to understand his internal thoughts.

Not to mention a sprawling supporting cast featuring Aja Naomi King, Andy Daly, Kevin Sussman, and Beau Bridges.

It is a massive ensemble.

So as a viewer, how does this not give you total tonal whiplash? Is this a tragedy, a romance, a workplace comedy, or a surrealist domestic drama? How does a show with this many disparate ingredients earn the number three spot?
