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!

This week, we get Eden's hot takes on all things pop culture. And you're gonna wanna hear what she thinks of Patti LuPone calling Madonna a movie killer. Plus we're discussing 112, The Neighbor, and all things Brooke Shields! Her cold sore, her mullet, and Brock's NYC encounter with her. Plus, we'll chat with Blaine Saunders (aka Carly) about how she met our casting director, G. Charles Wright, at the famed Oakwood Apartments.

All that and much more, so let's get to Middling!

They're smart. They're funny. They're basically married. This week, we pause our usual rewatch programming for an in-depth interview with Eileen Heisler and DeAnn Heline, the creators and showrunners of The Middle. Eileen and DeAnn share delicious details about the series, including lessons learned from the first unsuccessful pilot, their partnership with Patricia Heaton, and the Sue and Brad spin-off. We're so lucky to have them, and we know you'll love them too!
