Brett is a great example of how good a show like Superstore really is. No mediocre sitcom would have a character like Brett. The writers wouldn’t have the intelligence to create him, nor the heart to just roll with it. For a minor character who isn’t in a lot of episodes, he’s definitely one of my favorites.

He’s a practically silent worker, on the older side. At first, he doesn’t seem to do much—just hangs out in the background.

But you never knew what kind of low-key mischief he was up to. My absolute favorite Brett moment was when Mateo was trying to get hurt in order to stay in America and challenged Brett to a fight. Brett calmly pulls out a switchblade, and Mateo runs away absolutely terrified—LOL.

Then he has a pretty serious character arc when the tornado hits Cloud 9. He’s apparently outside, goes missing, and is presumed dead.

Then, months—or maybe even a year—later, he just shows up for work out of the blue like nothing ever happened. Everyone is shocked and overjoyed to see him. Though, realistically, they would’ve taken him out of the system by then. And honestly, who just shows up to work without being on the schedule, especially at a big-box retailer like that?
