It’s our finest hour and we’re never gonna be the same again because we are topping that (unusual for us). We are here with actress, Halloween icon, and “the most popular girl” Robyn Lively. You Might Know Her From Teen Witch, Into the Dark: They Come Knocking, 30 Rock, Cobra Kai, Wildcats, Twin Peaks, Savannah, The Karate Kid Part III, and Through the Glass Darkly. Obviously we got all the scoop from Robyn about headlining cult fave Teen Witch, why it hasn’t been revived, why there were musical numbers, the Rita Wilson of it all, and how it translated into a horror-adjacent career for her in later years. We also talked about Robyn sinking her teeth into the role of a smalltown lesbian in the indie Through the Glass Darkly, growing up in a showbiz family and getting emancipated from her parents, donning Tina Fey’s wig for the iconic 30 Rock “Reunion” episode, and rubbing elbows with Aaron Spelling. And Fuzzbucket. Happy Halloween, little gourds, we hope you love this one!
