COMMUNITY -- Pictured: Chevy Chase as Pierce -- NBC Photo: Mitchell Haaseth.

Chevy Chase was a musician long before he became famous for being funny.  But, for Chase comedy and music are pretty much the same set of muscles, which the Saturday Night Live alum wishes he could exercise more for this new sitcom, Community.

Chase believes that playing retired moist-towelette mogul is just plain laughable to begin with, but given a opportunity to improv a bit with his character Pierce Hawthorne would take the humor to a higher level.
