Episode 231: “Moonlighting | Our Top 8 Favorite Episodes”
The Conversation
- WHAT WAS HE THINKING? Glen Gordon Caron had a secret plan for what he wanted Moonlighting to do to network television: he wanted to kill the detective genre once and for all!
- Why were the seasons so short? Well, there was a little problem with getting episodes done on time...
- If Maddie was the “parent” and David was the “child” -- did David ever grow up?
- Is the show feminist? Or progressive? Susan and Sharon have thoughts!
- Why is the agency always broke? Maybe it’s all those people in the office who don’t do anything!
- That time when Susan got thrown off the set of The A-Team by George Peppard!
- Which Season of Moonlighting is the Moonlighting-est?
- What the hell happened with Season 4?? Warring stars, a missing showrunner -- and Die Hard!
So join Susan and Sharon as they talk Dirk Benedict, Cybill Shepherd, Bruce Willis, Melissa’s candy, The Princess Bride -- and the challenges of producing a show AND a baby at the same time!
