Strangers with Candy - The Museum of Television and Radio Interview with Cast

[@KamikazeJedi]

Strangers with candy might be the most underseen/rated comedies ever, and Amy Sedaris is a genius.

[@walterwhite6503]

for real, i wish stephen would talk about it more on interviews and his show but i guess it was only 2 years of his life...eh i thought it was genius and NO ONE EVER MENTIONS it, its kind of upsetting lol

[@joshsteele5701]

It was never going to make it. Especially with upright citizens brigade. It needed an Adult Swim type audience

[@ttott0013]

True. One of my favorite shows ever.

[@berghorst]

100%

[@hankochai]

One of the best comedies ever.

[@maxcornise-qh2jk]

I saw “One Woman Shoe” 12:09 twice at La Mama. Was in the midst of a suicidal alcoholic depression. Amy and David Raikoff were the crown jewels, I went in crying and I left nearly crippled from laughing-non stop. Her Lucia di Lammermoor mad scene at the end was a tour de force, easily placed on the level of the great chicken divas of the past! Her sleazy rants were in the key of Evil Miner.

[@Mike-bp2hh]

I had sex with a miner ⛏️

[@claires9100]

Glad you are doing better.

[@jesussaves1827]

Turn to Jesus He loves you, He is the healer of the body And savior of the soul, There is True Hope in Jesus, God protects Psalms 91, He is the God of miracles Acts 2:21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved Jesus alone saves Trust Him with your salvation John 3:16 1 Corinthians 15 1-4 Moreover Brethren, i declare unto you the gospel which i preached unto you, which also ye have received, and with wherein ye stand By which also ye are saved, if you keep in memory what i preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain, For i delivered unto you first of all that which i also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures, Take care

[@colingrandshire6494]

Amy Sedaris is brilliant and beautiful.

[@arcanondrum6543]

Pretty secure in herself as well. #1. Steve McQueen would never play a character so "undesirable" #2. Just watched her interviewed before this, "single, dating no one...". She is pretty adorable.

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

Colbert: "...and the thing we wanted was for nobody at the school to pay attention to the fact that she was 46. Over the course of 30 shows, no one ever says, 'hey, that woman's 46!' I just is completely accepted." So this show is about acceptance! So heartwarming!

[@theexpresidents]

Did you just try to make _Strangers with Candy_ woke?

[@v-town1980]

Ugh.

[@arcanondrum6543]

​@@theexpresidents No but your comment points out that you lack imagination, you repeat what you're told. Even when that doesn't make sense. Here's a little help: By ignoring her age while being in high school it doesn't spiral into a; her versus them, instead she "doesn't fit in sometimes" much like any other h.s. student. That makes the show work.

[@annierigsby9062]

@@arcanondrum6543i think you missed the sarcasm 😂

[@msannthrope1863]

One of my all time favorites. It was a victim of its own genius.

[@bradleylove8606]

the whole show revolves around amy and without her, pretty much anyone could play anyone else in the cast. Amy is so cool and funny. She totally self made this character.

[@Boomfydiddle]

I’ve watched this 3 dozen times since 03/04, this feels like home

[@theexpresidents]

Been coming back since '99. I got the 6 disc box-set now.

[@TheHavrelandtExperiment]

I got to admit I was one of those people that never watched this show when it came out, I saw bits and pieces but I didn't understand it. I didn't see where the humor was coming from, much like third Rock from the sun back when it first came out, I didn't understand the plot so I didn't know why it was funny. when I learned the plot to 3rd Rock from the sun I couldn't believe how funny it was, and I'm looking forward to binge watching this show this weekend if I can find it on Netflix or KZbin or wherever.

[@badad0166]

The dancing during the credits is such a warm fuzzy.

[@Aaron11411]

Oh yeah! I forgot about that.

[@v-town1980]

Amy is so cute❤ Not to mention the funniest woman alive.

[@sabrina-hu4ri]

Amy ~ Brilliant Comediane.

[@lowe-quay-shush]

Panel talks are more enriching when the moderator brings insite by asking clever questions that don't fall flat. Enunciation helps too.

[@bartholomewlemonhead3029]

They're talking about The Trip Back PSA

[@buyvibe]

Love me some Amy

[@Sarahbuildsstepsequencers]

Strangers is a comedy that makes me howl with laughter. It’s so *wrong* (as we said back then)!

[@joshsteele5701]

I wish principle Blackman worked more

[@alistercaddy1208]

He's so funny

[@sabrina-hu4ri]

He shines.

[@sera2775]

Why is there a CPA doing the interviewing. He looks terrified

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

Money.

[@soundpilatesandyoga8531]

Will kids soon even know what "after school specials" are?

[@spacekitt.n]

video starts at 5:50 (5 mins of introduction, seriously?)

[@r.p.mcmurphy6623]

waaahhh

[@natsu-machi]

Thank you 😩

[@BrianBattles]

When was this?

[@DavyThomas88]

Comedy like this is dead - very sad.

[@sicklygreyfoot]

What year was this?

[@FloorManiac]

Amy makes a reference to "Cancel Culture" so roughly 2016-2017 maybe? However, listening to them joke around brings me straight back to the 90's when people were actually funny and not overtly concerned with being offended on behalf of someone else.

[@jbtownsend9535]

2003

[@v-town1980]

​@@FloorManiacway off.

[@aereoelvis]

can you offer some details? when was this?

[@johnwright2911]

2005 I think!

[@crescentfreshbret]

John Wright No, this was on the season 2 DVD, which came out in 2003, so it’s gotta be from before then.

[@rejoyce318]

2001? www.curtainup.com/bookofliz.html

[@howardkleger]

they mention a potential movie of SWC , so that dates it before 2006

[@sabrina-hu4ri]

Some things are timeless. I think the show will have a cult following in years to come. After I'm dead. 🤪

[@rogerdale5451]

Producers note: never put swivel chairs on a set such as this. Only one not twizzling in chair is the black guy. Also, he's the only one wearing a suit... (other than the moderator)

[@paolap808]

How am I just connecting the dots that Jerri was inspired by Florrie Fisher?

[@paulmarks9063]

😊😊h😊a😊v😊e😊 th😊i😊😊

[@lucyfuir6386]

Gerry was sooo gross but I love her

[@Aaron11411]

Are Amy and Chris Elliot friends? They're comedy is really similar no?

[@arcanondrum6543]

Amy doesn't think so -> 16:20

[@soloseraphimheartsong3710]

James Lipton that guy ain't.

[@jamessandy5873]

Thank god for that! One James Lipton is one too many. What an insufferable POS that man is.

[@v-town1980]

Lipton was awful. A brown nosing git.

[@thanksfernuthin]

Back when Stephen Colbert was funny.

[@spacekitt.n]

Roasting the orange traitor isn't funny?

[@v-town1980]

​@@markb6295Watching Brandon the devil fall is funnier.😂

[@edwardwood6532]

I have an idea that eventually the writers ran out of ideas after running out of those 70's and 80's after school specials to spoof.

[@arcanondrum6543]

I doubt that. Colbert was probably hired away for "The Daily Show" as a correspondent, Amy keeps pretty busy... and that's without any research. "Sw/C" was so edgy that the it surely made executives a bit nervous -> 11:20 and finally, it didn't catch on until people learned what they lost. Comedy Central had developed a replacement for that timeslot... that no one has heard of.

[@arcanondrum6543]

Plus maybe listen --> 28:52

[@soloseraphimheartsong3710]

That black man is made entirely of delicious Nestle's chocolate.

[@v-town1980]

Corn.

[@sabrina-hu4ri]

The show was too intelligent for the American public.

[@Andrew_Erickson]

Not providing the time and date and source is cringe as fuck.

[@v-town1980]

Huh? You really don't know what cringe is then.

[@arcanondrum6543]

This video drops tons of hints. A few minutes with a search engine.... But wait, I forgot. There's a circus of fools that never do anything but comment their ignorance.

[@3506Dodge]

Gay was still just a joke then. It still couldn't be taken seriously.

[@SpiritualHearts1]

Don't be gay

[@gggnumber1]

Nope. Can't watch this.

[@gggnumber1]

@yoyoyouuuu1 I loved the show. And Amy Sedaris is #1. Can't stand panels like this. It reminds me of a bunch of softball players at a tavern with a pitcher of beer going over details of the game they just played, that's only important to them. Stuff like this is for the cast, not for us. BTW, the Museum of Television and Radio is awesome.

[@v-town1980]

And yet comments on it. Lol.

[@TheColeTruth]

k bye

The days when Stephen Colbert was actually funny and before he sold out...
