‘Dr. Ken’ Meets ‘Community’: On Set with Dan Harmon and Ken Jeong
“It’s only fitting that my show should be eaten by one of its children,” says Dan Harmon with a wry smile. As the creator of Community, Harmon cast Ken Jeong and gave him the opportunity to grow as an actor — so much so that Jeong was able to create and star in his own show, Dr. Ken. And now the roles are reversed: Harmon guest stars (along with Community alum Alison Brie) on the season 2 finale of Jeong’s show. We spoke to them on set as they shot the episode about Community‘s influence on Dr. Ken and whether or not the fictional Dr. Ken will follow in the real Dr. Ken’s footsteps.
