Daryl
as played by Colton Dunn
Daryl is a journeymen copywriter who's spent virtually his entire career at Yogurt. Not overly ambitious or prolific, Daryl is laid back and chooses to let ideas come to him, usually in his sleep. Despite the lack of drive, Daryl usually strikes gold once or twice a year with a serviceable idea for a client. Daryl spends his down time writing Lord of the Rings fan fiction, baking and caring for his cats, Samwise, Bilbo, Gandalf and Viggo.
