Ted McGinley has had several acts to his career. Whether it’s early on when his presence on sitcoms sometimes foretold their end, to his iconic turn in Married with Children, McGinley always brought the goods, whether or not the shows kept up with him. With Shrinking, he’s not only found his best role to date, he’s being challenged as well. When we sat down a few weeks ago to chat, mainly about Shrinking, the subject came up, leading to an excellent discussion. Today, that fun little talk comes your way. Previously, I spoke about the show with star Jason Segel (here) and creator Bill Lawrence (here). Now, it’s McGinley’s turn!
Below, you can see my conversation with McGinley. Having grown up with his work, especially on Married with Children, it was really enjoyable to just be chatting with the man. We were riffing on telemarketing scams before we even started recording, before diving right into Shrinking and playing Derek as the man gets to evolve in the world of the show. He’s incredibly thoughtful and fun to talk with, especially given what this role is doing not just for his career, but for him as an artist. It was a lovely chat. The show is wonderful as well, and really is only getting better, not simply for him and his character, but overall, too. It’s streaming on Apple TV+ right now, so check it out if you somehow have not yet. You can thank me later…
