Chevy Chase hated how Pierce was portrayed and was apprently extremely difficult to work with.

I don’t know who was right on this one.

On the one hand, the press making you out to be a racist diva that made the set toxic is pretty fucked up, especially when Harmon was drunk half the time and sexually harassing his writing staff the other half.

On the other hand, I genuinely think that Pierce was the best written and most developed character on that show. Which makes his complaints about the writing seem pretty hollow.

Also he's a straight asshole to everyone. In season 1 he was annoying but he had some good qualities, he was a straight villain in season 2/3 to the point you question why they all tolerate him

Yeah because you can tell when Joel McHale talks about it in interviews he’s very polite. I imagine a good day with Chevy is tolerable.
