Brandon Scott Jones will be on CBS’ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Show tonight

And here is said interview :):

I liked that they talked about him being part of a couple skits on the show in the past. I didn't know that for the longest time until after I started watching "Ghosts" and was looking to see what all else the cast had done prior to the show.

I do that as well with many shows.  When I started watching Ghosts, Brandon was so familiar, I had to go down the rabbit hole and discovered he had been on The Good Place.  Speaking of Ghosts, our clicking, dinosaur loving stripper is a regular on High Potential. Took many episodes before I gave up hoping he'd take his shirt off.  <big sigh>  It just occurred to me, on Ghosts, wasn't he originally from Australia? His characters nickname on High Potential is Oz.  😆

Yes! I literally started watching "High Potential" because I found out he was on that show XD. Luckily I wound up enjoying the show as a whole and I love all the characters and whatnot, but yeah, sometimes it's the simple things :p.

Hahhahaaha, I like the way you think :D. Hey, it's only their first season and they've since been renewed for a second one, so there's still plenty of time to hope for such a thing!

And yes, his character on "Ghosts" was Australian - the actor himself is from Australia. I do wonder if his character's name on "High Potential" is a cute little nod to that. 

Anywho, yeah, going down the rabbit hole of an actor's career is fun. Always a good way to discover shows and movies that one might not have seen before. I do know Brandon was on "The Good Place" - I'd wanted to check out that show as it was, 'cause I've heard so many good things about it, but knowing he's on there just adds to my interest :).

I love High Potential! I had no clue that he played Chris. I wonder if being on Ghosts will help any actors find work?

I didnt know Deniz (Chris/Oz) was on High Potential before I watched the pilot.  I'm not completely shallow, cough, cough, but I'm sticking with the show.  I like all the main cast, and the cases have been interesting enough to add it along with Ghosts as my top 2 must see shows for the week. 

Since Deniz's character surname is "Osman", "Oz" is a natural aka, and is also a nice nod to his birth country.  

I would highly recommend you watch The Good Place!  Brandon doesn't appear until later in the series, but I don't think you'll be disappointed while you wait to see him.  Such a terrific show!

Got a couple of details wrong.

I enjoy it a lot too!  I didn't recognize Deniz on High Potential, but seeing his name in the credits when I watched the pilot rang a bell.  Checked with IMDB, and realized he was Isaac's dinosaur dancer!

I  think his episodes of Ghosts aired around the same time period as the pilot of HP.  It sure doesn't hurt being seen on an extremely popular weekly program.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how likely is it that we’ll get an all-musical episode of Ghosts? –Stéphanie
“We hope so, so much,” star Rose McIver said when we delivered your Q to her. “We had the musical element in this season with the Anything Goesepisode, which I had a great time doing. But we have so many cast members who are singers and dancers and performers of various sorts, we really, really hope that we could lean in and do that at some point in the future.”
