St. Denis Medical's Mekki Leeper Shows Behind-the-Scenes of NBC Sitcom

In Us Weekly's exclusive clip, Mekki Leeper offered a glimpse at the set of NBC's new mockumentary 'St. Denis Medical'

St. Denis Medical star Mekki Leeper took Us behind-the-scenes of the highly anticipated NBC series to share some secrets about the magic that goes into making a TV show.

While exploring the set, Leeper noticed that costars Allison Tolman and David Alan Grier had their own custom chairs — but he didn't. 'A lot of the props I think are real things that don't work. But they make it look realistic for the show. I play around with this a lot but I am always afraid it is going to kill me or something,' he admitted to the camera. 'But it probably won't. I will get a big check from NBC Universal if I do die temporarily and probably someone will use this to bring me back to life and collect a lot of money.

The final part of the tour featured Leeper checking the structure of the building. After confirming that the show uses light panels to pretend certain scenes take place outside, Leeper poked fun at how 'frighteningly flimsy' the wooden walls of St. Denis Medical are.
