>>91837439Yeah, I know all that. I meant why R&D?
The insurance agency is something that's has both comedic relevance, from how many people recognize the concept of superheroes having a property damage fetish, and also audience relevance because it's not an atypical job. It's something at least an audience can connect to or apply itself to, like The Office. That seems like the entire crux of why the show even exists.
R&D isn't a regular job and the people who would work there wouldn't be regular joes. That seems like the complete opposite of what NBC would want.
