Browncoat 33,569 April 14, 2020 Watching Monk this morning, and who should pop up but Billy Gardell, with a pipe in his head. He was brilliant. 2 1 Share this post Link to post

I would have thought they would have shown him walking away with a small cup of black coffee. 1 Share this post Link to post

I would have thought they would have shown him walking away with a small cup of black coffee. Looked like a yogurt parfait and maybe a latte? A latte made with skim milk and sugar free syrup isn’t too bad. Likewise, fat-free Greek yogurt with reduced sugar and with fruit isn’t too bad. I think the point is, if he (we) eats a healthy diet, exercises, and takes meds as prescribed, he/we can still keep blood sugar levels and weight under better control. But yeah, at first glance, it doesn’t look all that healthy. 2 Share this post Link to post

Her accent in real life is definitely more "British" than her character on the show. I checked her Wiki entry and she was born and raised in London but her parents are Nigerian. I feel rather pleased with myself for noticing! Her stories about riding the elevators were interesting; in fact she is a really interesting person. 5 Share this post Link to post
possibilities 36,391 March 11, 2021 That interview was not what I expected at all. The elevator stuff was fascinating. She was on The Daily Show as a "correspondent" for a while, and her comedy style doesn't give you any hints that she's got a background as an electrical engineer. 4 Share this post Link to post

I thought I’d watched The Daily Show fairly regularly, but I don’t remember her at all from that. Was she Trevor Noah-era, or Jon Stewart-era? 1 Share this post Link to post
SoMuchTV 10,353 May 31, 2021 Bob’s mom (Christine Ebersole) shows up in the latest season of The Kominsky Method (another Chuck Lorre show) playing, Spoiler if you can believe it, an even older, crankier mom. Spoiler tagged because it was a lol moment for me and I don’t want to ruin the surprise for anyone. Share this post Link to post

Spoiler tagged because it was a lol moment for me and I don’t want to ruin the surprise for anyone. And Kudos to her for playing older! She did a great job. They may have invited her to do the role in part based on the role she has in Bob Hearts Abishola, but she managed to take a similar role and make it the perfect amount of different for the dynamics of the other show's situation. Maybe at least a support Emmy or other award nomination for her in the near future! Share this post Link to post
wendyg 3,140 June 19, 2021 Ebersole is amazing in KOMINSKY METHOD. I only recognized her voice. Even after I knew who it was I still couldn't really see it. By the way, I've counted up. Vernee Watson has been in no less than seven of Lorre's shows, going all the way back to GRACE UNDER FIRE. 1 Share this post Link to post
