When was the last time you sat on the bathroom floor, watched The Middle on your phone, applied eyeliner, and had some Mommy and Me time -- all at the same time? For Eden, it was just 20 minutes ago. Today, we discuss episode 113, "The Interview," covering Sue's braces, Atticus' party trick that made it to screen, and whether Bob has a crush on Frankie. Plus, we chat with our talented (and devilishly handsome) director, Ken Whittingham (The Office, Parks and Rec, and Abbott Elementary). He tells just how he handled having a live bear on set and his relationship with the camera & actors.
All that and so much more, so let's get to Middling!
