Adam Scott jokes calzones are 'going to be on my gravestone'

Scott is often associated with calzone jokes stemming from his character's love for the Italian dish on the sitcom.

The 51-year-old actor laughingly shared, "Calzones are a thing that I feel almost like Calzones are going to be on my gravestone or something."

Appreciating the humorous nature of the ongoing joke, Scott credited the show's creator Mike Schur for the references he continues to receive.

"Every time a calzone gets sent to me in a restaurant or anything, I text Mike and I'm like, 'Just so you know, this thing is still happening,'" he said.

"Everyone's so great. I really miss them. They're the best. It was so fun. No one took it for granted. We all had a blast."
