What’s up, dudes? I’ve got Christmas Clatter host Todd Killian here to discuss “Newhart” episode ‘Thanksgiving for the Memories!’ When some electrical work needs to be done at the inn, Dick and company go to the rich Vanderkellens for Thanksgiving, until a fight sends them to Larry, Daryl, and Daryl. Ludicrously rich relatives? Check. Groundhog stuffing? Yup. Carving knives that make Excalibur look like a butter knife? Definitely! So grab your clubs and play some indoor gold to this episode!

What's up, dudes? Once again,  I’ve got Christmas Clatter host Todd Killian here to discuss the back door Christmas in May “Newhart” episode ‘The Prodigal Daryl!’ Either the writer really loved Christmas or there was a Christmas episode they hadn’t used and really wanted to!

Joanna decides to take Christmas card pictures early since she and Dick always miss the opportunity during the season. They deck the hall—or inn, rather—with a Christmas tree, garland, wreaths, etc. Their patrons even  get involved and even help trim the tree!

Meanwhile Larry, his brother Daryl, and his other brother Daryl win $30K in a jingle writing contest! When his brother Daryl takes his share of the money and blows it on wanton decadence, Larry asks Dick to help him track him down and bring him back.  As the Loudons are about to take their Christmas card photo, the brother Daryl returns to his family! It's a Christmas in May miracle!

Yes, this one’s got it all! Popcorn jingle? Check. Beautiful live tree? Yep. Daryl in a track suit? Definitely! So grab $10K, party with Dave Coulier, and take a Christmas card pic with this episode!

Which is the most romantic of the Batman films? Whose takes aren’t too hot, aren’t too cold, but are just right? And what’s the new behind the scenes goss in the trades? We dish about these questions and more as we watch Season 6, Episode 16 of Family Matters.

Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.

Join our countdown to number one (and our slow descent into madness) in all the places you expect internet people to be:

This month's episode is WIDOW written by Leila Cohan-Miccio (Santa Clarita Diet, Awkward). It follows Rachel, a young woman whose husband dies while they’re in the middle of a rough patch. Rachel does not handle it well. In Andrew’s interview with Leila you’ll hear her insane story about development hell and the frustrating double standard executives put on female characters. Leila’s start into comedy writing and a quick dish on pitching shows on zoom. Leila’s a real example of the determination and perseverance needed to succeed in Hollywood. This is a good one! Enjoy it!

WIDOW stars D'Arcy Carden as Rachel, Cory Michael Smith as Jake, Punam Patel as Daisy, Arturo del Puerto as Emmett, Julia Duffy as Wendy, Kathreen Khavari as Hannah, Eric Edelstein as Miles/Officer #1, Sandeep Parikh as Levi/Officer #2/ Uber Driver, Noah Findling as George, and Andrew Reich with Stage Directions.

Janet Leahy (Mad Men, Gilmore Girls, Boston Legal, Roseanne, The Cosby Show) talks her creative journey and work experiences.

We talk about:

• The Mad Men writers room
• Women in TV writing
• Women breaking into TV
• Writers Assistants
• Developing characters
• Production Secretaries
• The writers room
• Creating episode stories
• Worst fears-using character fears to create compelling story conflict
• Transitioning from half-hour comedy writing to one-hour drama
• Family of characters
• Story Conflict
• pitching TV shows,
• brainstorming
• playwriting
• road trips for writing

Quotes from the show:

"I pitch why it's important, the characters,  the tone."

"What's the worst thing? What are you afraid of? What relationships in your life are you trying to resolve? Why can't you resolve them?"

“It has to entertain the audience, move them, nourish them emotionally.”

“Family of characters… people bringing this family, these characters into their home. Because of the technology, they’re carrying them in their pocket now, too.”

"Whhat are their hopes and dreams? What are they not getting? What's their struggle? What are hoping to gain in their journey? Let's say their journey is life or their journey is a job or what have you. As long as you know all that, you can start playing with that. Then, what I found is once you have your characters,

"People start bringing in stories from their own lives to the writers' room and translate them through the show's characters."

"I try to clear my brain and then the ideas come. I let go of any notion that I'm going to control this thing and then the ideas come."

“This kind of complete camaraderie and yet complete competition in the room for jokes.”

“You’ll be really funny and talented on one show and the next show you work on, that showrunner decides whether you’re funny or not.”
