'Miracle Workers' star Jon Bass on the joys of working on a Simon Rich project with Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi

Overflowing  with talented actors, 'Miracle Workers' has many stand-out performances, including that of Jon Bass, who plays Sam, one of the very few earthlings we get to meet on the show.

TBS debuted its heavenly comedy 'Miracle Workers' Tuesday, February 12, and since then we have been hooked to it. From Steve Buscemi's "loser" god to Daniel Radcliffe's recluse and socially awkward angel, there is a lot to love about this show. Overflowing with talented actors, the show has many stand-out performances, including that of Jon Bass, who plays Sam, one of the very few earthlings we get to meet on the show. 

Bass, who has "fond memories" of shooting for the TBS show along with his fellow-earthling Sasha Compère aka Laura, and the rest of the cast tells MEA WorldWide that being an earthling was pretty boring. "The stakes are so low for us compared to [the angels], you know, the earth exploding!  The only interaction I had with the heavenly cast was cast dinners!  We had a lot of fun during the weekends getting food or watching a movie," says Bass.
