Before George Segal was a big businessman in Look Who’s Talking, he was a failed salesman in Death of a Salesman. Even when he 32 in that 1964 teleplay, he knew how to use his comedic timing to command the scene.
Before AJ Michalka was a music teacher on Schooled, she was a singing star on General Hospital. How fun was it to see her be a little bitchy when she was 13 in that 2004 episode?
Anyone who watches The Goldbergs knows that we see Jeff Garlin in his tighty whities and a T-shirt a lot on the ABC sitcom. Therefore, he feels comfortable walking around wearing just that. The other day during a break from filming, he did the Twist to Chuck Berry’s Brown Eyed Handsome Man. Something he admits, and we know, he is.
Now we also know he has sexy legs that do magical things when he dances. Aren’t they hypnotizing?
ABC has had a sad fall, so they want to laugh a little more laughter in the spring. Therefore, they ordered some more episodes from four of their sitcoms. They asked Black-ish for two more and one extra ep from The Goldbergs, Single Parents and The Kids Are All Right.
Personally, I think we need more episodes of The Goldbergs, Single Parents and American Housewife because I cannot get enough of those shows and it is all about me.
I also think ABC jumped the gun on Kids because without The Conners as a lead in their ratings will be less than the amount of kids in their family!
After too long of a delay, Schooled finally has premiere date. The sitcom based in the ’90s will debut Wednesday, January 9th at 8:30p after The Goldbergs on ABC, the show it is spun off from. The spinoff will focus on Adam F Goldberg’s old high school where Lainey (AJ Michalka) is now a teacher. I guess she and Barry do not work out.
The pilot was shot for last season, but the bad network heads decided not to pick it up. After some fan coercion, they aired the pilot as a test. And it passed with flying colors. Doing better than most of their other sitcoms at the time. Therefore, they picked it up for this season. Yet, they stupidly decided to hold it until now. Big mistake.
Another mistake is I do not know why they are nothing doing a retro night of comedies. Like lead the night off with the Kids Are Alright that based in the ’70s, followed by The Goldbergs from 1980’something and ending their night in the ’90s with Schooled and Fresh Off the Boat. How rad would that be? Totally groovy, right?
Back to the schedule. What happens to American Housewife? It will replace The Conners on February 5th. The latter completes its season the week beforehand. When it comes to AH, I am glad they have a lot of faith in this show. If you have not seen it, check it out tonight because it is really funny.
