Ken interviews the versatile Phoef Sutton who has written sitcoms, dramas, screenplays, and novels. Among his credits: Cheers, Newhart, Boston Legal, Terriers, a Robert DeNiro movie, and novels, including one with Janet Evanovich. Part 1 deals with comedy, features, and how he got that rather unusual name.
Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteDid you ask if there is any way of seeing "Thanks"?
Great interview, Ken. I was one of those who thought he was a women. As far as THE FAN, I didn't see it but as he indicated I guess hiring a Brit to direct a movie that's even indirectly about baseball might not have been the best of ideas.
ReplyDeleteAm I crazy that I automatically knew how Phoef's name was pronounced?
ReplyDeleteThanks for that, first one I've listened to and enjoyed thoroughly. Gives the lie to the trope of comedy writers together being unfunny.
