The Midnight Citizen 242: "The Private Lives of Television Characters"

Join Mike in the studio on a Saturday night…

…where he wonders how much more intimate television can get? Will we soon see the characters watching Netflix on the world’s first 24-hour sitcom? Also, I’m in grave risk of getting the “Freshman 15”, and I learn that Bob Crane once did a television pilot where he starred as a 40-year-old college student. Am I in danger of going down his same path?
