My KZbin friends, this is the first video on my channel to ever reach, and surpass, 100,000 views. My gratitude is immeasurable. Thank you, to all of you, and welcome to all of the new people joining this community, as well as my community on Twitch. I'm excited to continue to share my videos, food adventures, and creative endeavors with you all. 😎

Atticus, I was on set for a press event for Episode 200 a few years ago, and I just wanted to thank you again for being so kind that day. I remember talking to you about the possibility of you directing. The entire cast was very welcoming to us as press which I appreciated and it was such a treat seeing the Heck house. I actually live very close to the WB Ranch and it breaks my heart to see that so many of those buildings are being torn down. It's history...! Glad there will at least be sound stages, but it won't be the same.

The Middle is one of the most relatable shows I’ve ever watched. Each character feels so relatable to real life people in my life. Just a hard working, honest middle class family. The perfect formula for a hit show. Thanks for all the laughter and joy you’ve brought to the lives of many. You guys represented a segment of the country that isn’t glamorous, and isn’t often the subject of shows, but is real and represents the lives of a forgotten region of the country, between NY and LA. Thank you.

The episode that made me laugh the most was the one where Brick was taking care of the baby doll that once was assigned to Axel. The part where the doll was crying as if it was posessed was hilarious. By the way, I don't understand why they called the kid Brick. Was it a nickname for Rich/Ricard, maybe?

Hi Atticus!! I cannot believe this video popped up on my feed so unexpectedly, but I needed it! I worked on The Middle as your stunt double for a little while back in… I want to say 2016 or 17. I was only there for a little while, but I had so much fun! Background acting has been one of the best experiences of my life, and seeing WB Ranch brought back so many memories!! I’ve still never gone back to watch the episodes I’m in, as I don’t even remember which ones they were, but I DISTINCTLY remember running around with a trash bag on my head trying to take out the trash in the house. Also, may I just say your guys’ crafty was unmatched. They always had the best snacks and food! I’m heartbroken to hear that they’re tearing down the ranch, and though I spent far less time on it than you, I feel your sorrow. It was great watching you show people around, and it makes me miss the show even more! Those were the days :)

Love the middle so much. It is on loop repeat in Australia. When the last episode airs it starts at episode 1 again the next night. I have seen every episode so many times. Such a funny heartwarming show. There were times when every character drove you crazy and other times you loved them all. So sad that the buildings have been destroyed. As an older person I grew up on I Dream of Jeannie, Bewitched, The Waltons, The Partridge Family and to see all those houses go, as well as the Heck's and many others is heartbreaking.

Sad that this video is what made me find your blog. Watched The Middle originally because I was a huge Scrubs fan and had to see what Neil Flynn was doing next. The show very quickly became a new favorite back then and is still something I stop and watch if it happens to be on. So sad to see such a history rich place become a memory. Last I saw it was going to be the site of more modern sound stages, making the ranch suffer one very tragic, final transformation. Massive amount of memories come from that lot for me alone so I can only imagine what it would be like for someone who got to work there, especially as long as you did.

I'm French and after 25 years i'm now contemplating and in fact right in the MIDDLE of planning a tourist tour in the US. With a stop in California (of course !!) I was looking for the place where the TV series The Middle was filmed. But found a couple of youtube videos talking and showing the destruction of the place (WB ranch.) SO SO SAD and BAD to me. I wish i could have planned this visit years ago. I wish this place (and some famous others such as The Little House on the Prairie, TV show places and buildings) had not been destroyed. Thank you much for keeping this kind of videos alive. Just for rememberings and respect of those gone places, and for the actors and people working all around them.

It’s a shame to see the ranch be demolished. I had the opportunity to work on the lot back in 2002 and take in some of that rich history. But time stops for no one or nothing. Everything is changing. For the better or for the worse…it’s always changing. It happens everywhere and it’s always a reminder to take it all in while you can. Stay present. And be happy that you’ll always have the memories. I love The Middle. Never failed to bring a smile to my face and joy to my soul. Thank you for your part in that. And thank you to all the others that worked hard to bring it into our lives. But all good things… I believe Warner Ranch will become 16 new sound stages. And while the rich history remains in some form or another, new memories will be made just like the ones you made. And in time, everything will fade away.

Atticus, thanks so much for the tour and for your insight about growing up on the Ranch. I completely understand how you feel about that area. I live in KY, but I can tell you that The Middle absolutely nailed so many things about IN culture and what it's like to be a lower middle class family. It was incredibly relatable. While the show lasted for 9 seasons, I can't keep from saying that I feel like it was underrated as other shows tried to be edgier and explicit, as streaming services took over the entertainment landscape. Patricia and Neil were fantastic, as expected (and I'd argue that her performance as Frankie was even better than her work as Debra), but you, Eden, and Charlie really made that show particularly special. You were each so different but real, and it was a treat to get to watch you and your characters grow up before our eyes from season to season. What a gift you gave us! The writers did an excellent job with developing those characters through the years. And kudos to your mom for protecting you and helping you navigate that. (whisper: Kudos)

Thank you for asking me to work on this video! I teared up a bit while you were showing off Blondie St because I could see The Partridge Family house and garage. That's my favorite show of all time and I always wanted to visit it in person. Devastating. 😔

A lot of TV shows were filmed at the Warner Bros. Ranch Studio including at that familiar horseshoe shaped street with all the houses (mainly facades) where they shot ''Bewitched'', ''I dream of Jeannie'', ''Father Knows Best'', etc., and of course ''The Middle''.

As someone who grew up in Indiana, The Middle was literally exactly like my family. My older brother is like Brick and I’m like Sue 😂 It’s one of my favorite shows. Hurt to hear about the tear down of the sets. The sets may be gone, but the memories last forever. Glad to see you doing well, Atticus!

I can relate a bit to Brick and Sue at the same time. I was a bit of a late bloomer, I was always reading books, had very few friends and I always was clumsy. Now I know that clumsiness may be cause by a condition called Dispraxia. It's name must be spread for awareness.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE I just want to say I came across your channel just now, and I'm loving something about you that's very specific and that is your faith, and of course your work is fantastic but I'm currently battling bladder and kidney cancer and been having a lot of trouble maintaining my faith with all the hate, anxiety and craziness in the world, but I've been doing my own videos for a long time now, and seeing you make these videos and also professing your faith and talking about your work really has inspired me, I ended up watching a bunch of your videos and I just enjoyed every one of them, thank you so much for everything you do, thank you for your faith, we as believers have to stand strong and continue to be kind and inspire one another! Hopefully one day my dreams of growing my channel will come true and maybe I will start making money off what I love doing, because obviously work has been really tough with the cancer, and I live alone and battle all this on my own so it's faith that keeps me going, anyway sorry for rambling on thank you so much!! 😊

This was so awesome Atticus!! This is and always be my Families comfort show. It's hilarious has a lot of reality to it taken with Extremes in a lot of it... I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed all of the characters they each added to them. We were in love with you brick still are... We watch this pretty much every day. And when my adult kids come to visit. We watch this And will continue to in years to come... I love your vacation spots. I've been to both. I think you would love in California Yosemite National Park in Utah, You would love exploring Zion and Moab... The sequoias which is only about three hours away the giants wow!!! Thank you so much for doing this video I feel physically sick that they burnt all that history down. It makes me sad mad and heartbroken. I just don't think there was a reason for that that's just how I feel... Thank you For this in God bless you for sharing your faith and being. Obviously the amazing very bright person that you are and funny by the way😂❤

The Middle (in re-runs) showed up on the local Austin, TEXAS station a few years ago. It took one episode for my family and me to get hooked! Every character was written with a huge amount of space to shine. The set designer did a fabulous job on the HOUSE which was THE BEST character of all! Fabulous show that everyone (in the family) can actually watch and enjoy.

Atticus, came across your channel last evening and this was the video that got my attention. First let me say, thanks for posting this. We are big fans of "The Middle" loved the show. I am also a fan of movie and television history and of the studios. Growing up with the Andy Griffith Show many years later I got the chance to visit WB and other studios as well as making a pilgrimage to Franklin Canyon where the Griffth Show filmed the opening scene where Opie threw the rock in the Lake and the former site of Desilu's 40 Acre Backlot which was the outdoor setting for the town of Mayberry. Fast forwarding, this video joggled my memories of visiting, unfortunately got there to late to get to see Laramie Street where so many of my favorite westerns were filmed, it was gone! I was not familiar enough with the area to know about WB Ranch at the time, not realizing it was just a short distance away and I don't think it was open for touring. The video you have posted here is priceless ! This is the kind of content I really enjoy. Seeing the Ranch through your eyes as child actor who was actually working there is down right cool ! Most of the actors and actresses I have met and talked to did not seem to have a particular interest in the history of the backlots or the preservation of them. Well, enough rambling for now, keep up the good work, I will be watching and sharing your videos as...I have just clicked the liked button and subscribed to your channel. God Bless You !
