David Brittlesbee

 is the soft-spoken, hapless, executive producer of Mythic Quest, who is lacks the confidence and decision-making ability to exercise his authority over his employees. This is seen often throughout the series, especially when Jo, David’s personal assistant, tries to become Ian’s assistant instead of David’s.

He recently went through a messy divorce, and Brad mentions that his ex-wife is Asian.

Post-pandemic
By the time the gang all come back to work in the office, David believes he's the boss. But no one else does. Even Sue, somewhat remote from the business' power structure, expresses surprise that he claims to be her boss. She repeatedly tells him that the reason people don't believe it is because of his kind eyes.

After normal office life resumes, Jo is quick to move on. She leaves David's office for Brad's, seemingly glad of the switch. The three seemingly treat it as a kind of "romantic triangle", with David eventually devolving into a kind of rejected lover around them.

Trivia
