The year was 1992, and the longtime married man Ted Danson had just wrapped filming the 10th season of the popular sitcom Cheers. The 11th season would not film for another couple months, and so with an abnormally long hiatus ahead of him, Ted decided to sign on to the comedy movie Made in America, starring alongside the recent Oscar winner, Whoopi Goldberg. What happened next was pop culture history. An affair that would go down in infamy. The '90s may be a black hole in terms of primary sources and research, but Kaitlyn made sure to scrape up and uncover all the juicy details about this eventful affair.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I'm Steve Kmetko. Join me, with today's guest, Cliff Clavin from “Cheers”, John Ratzenberger.A “Hail Mary” pass is pretty much a football term, and of course a prayer, but that's the point.. Several decades ago, one auditioning actor (who was shown the door), held that door open long enough to toss a Hail Mary pass to the producers. That last second pitch landed him the role of an iconic character in one of the biggest TV comedies of the 20th century.  Show CreditsHost/Producer: Steve KmetkoAll things technical: Justin ZangerleExecutive Producer: Jim LichtensteinMusic by: Brian SanyshynTranscription: Mushtaq Hussain https://stillherehollywood.comhttp://patreon.com/stillherehollywoodSuggest Guests at: stillherehollywood@gmail.comAdvertise on Still Here Hollywood: jim@stillherenetwork.comPublicist: Maggie Perlich: maggie@numbertwelvemarketing.com

This episode is a continuation from a conversation that took place on the Hall of Justice podcast episode 395. In that episode, Ken Levine detailed his illustrious TV writing career that included writing for MASH, Cheers, Frasier, the Simpsons, and countless others. In that episode, there was no discussion of what this episode is about. While he was writing Cheers and Frasier, Ken Levine was ALSO a Major League Baseball play-by-play announcer. Levine called games for the Baltimore Orioles, Seattle Mariners, and San Diego Padres. In this episode recounts in great detail how this successful television writer began calling games into a tape recorder at Dodgers Stadium. That activity morphed into a couple of minor league gigs, which in turn became opportunities in the big leagues. While the entire story is fascinating, this podcast also contains amazing stories about Ken Griffey Jr., Tony Gwynn, and Cal Ripken, Jr. Still, the best stories involve Tom Hanks and Ted Danson, who played former Red Sox pitcher Sam Malone on Cheers.
