Hollywood & Levine

EP235: The Golden Age of TV Comedy

The early ‘70s gave us amazing comedy shows — ALL IN THE FAMILY, MASH, THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW, THE BOB NEWHART SHOW, THE CAROL BURNET SHOW… and one year they were all on the same night on the same network. They were all very different shows but had one key thing in common. It’s that common denominator that is missing today. What is it and why is it important?

Hollywood &amp; Levine looks at the world of entertainment, pop culture, screenwriting, and life, and takes none of it seriously.  The point is to make you laugh, although useful information might accidentally slip through.  Hosted by Emmy-winning writer/baseball announcer/talk show host, Ken Levine, Hollywood &amp; Levine will feature commentary, war stories on Ken’s career (MASH, Cheers, Frasier, Simpsons), interviews, writing advice, movie reviews, snarky award show recaps, tall tales from his baseball and radio career, segments from old broadcasts, improv sketches, answering listener questions, and more.   It’s a fun, fast-paced hour of humor, nonsense, and God knows what.
