Needless to say, despite his blunder, Jonah\u2019s immediate romantic interest in Amy is apparent, sparking one of comedy TV\u2019s most memorable ships in recent years.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Colton Dunn, Ben Feldman, and America Ferrera in &#8216;Superstore&#8217; Season 1 pilot<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Trae Patton \/ \u00a9NBC \/ courtesy Everett Collection<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As Jonah goes through the day\u2019s tasks, he continues to have little slip-ups, but manages to put a smile on Amy\u2019s face when a fake robbery turned flash mob proposal for associate Cheyenne from the father of her unborn child leads to Cloud 9\u2019s lights going out. Glow-in-the-dark stars placed on the ceiling by Jonah offer Amy a new perspective, hinting at the future ahead of these characters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThere was a lot of fun that we had back then,\u201d Feldman muses. \u201cI remember getting into an argument with America because there was a scene where she was talking to me, and she was looking down, but I was looking into her eyes, and America said something like, \u2018What are you doing? Stop that.\u2019 And they kept that in as her character.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Feldman explains that when the director cut, \u201cI kind of was like, \u2018What am I doing? I\u2019m playing the love interest. I\u2019m supposed to be into you.\u2019 And she was like, \u2018I don\u2019t like that.\u2019 I think a lot of our dynamics were born in that pilot. I think that\u2019s why that show went on for so long, was I feel like we just kind of gelled right away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Among the other memories Feldman recalls is, \u201cI bet one of the producers and Lauren Ash how many times they would have to do that ridiculous [flash mob] dance. I think I won the bet, and so\u2026 my prize was a signed <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/jason-derulo\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Jason Derulo;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Jason Derulo<\/a> poster where he said like, \u2018It\u2019s your boy Jason.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As for\u00a0<em>Superstore<\/em>\u2018s enduring impact, Feldman says, \u201cI genuinely am proud of that show and its effect on people. We were a moderately successful show on linear television, but so many people have come to find it in the years since we made it, or at least in the years since we started making it, all around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Feldman reveals he and his former costars \u201cjoke when we go to other countries, we\u2019re like the biggest stars ever\u2026 But the vast majority of people who come up to me will say it\u2019s their comfort show and they found it in Covid, or if it wasn\u2019t Covid, they found it during a really dark time in life\u2026 I think it\u2019s not just a testament to us and to that show, but to comedy, which I don\u2019t think there\u2019s enough of right now on TV,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The actor has most recently reprised his guest-starring role on CBS\u2019s comedy <em><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/show\/ghosts\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Ghosts;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Ghosts<\/a><\/em>, in which he features as Kyle, a man who can see the titular spirits dwelling at Woodstone. \u201cI think <em>Ghosts<\/em> is a great one. I could probably name three others that I watch, and four million dramas. But us funnies, we\u2019re here to get you through all the dark times, and there should be more of us funnies around, I think,\u201d Feldman notes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Luckily,\u00a0<em>Superstore<\/em> is there to lean on anytime you need a funny fix.
