Episode Transcript

(00:02):
Milk. When I think about acouple of shows, milk was an important
part of a person's character. Hi, this is the US, is the
Falcon Crest ab show here on jailj medium And one show where milk was

(00:23):
important was Laverne and Shirley. I'msure you guys remember Laverne and Shirley where
Laverne drank milk and PEPSI I can'teven imagine. But then on Falcon Crest,
Richard, Richard Channing always drank aglass of milk, and it is

(00:49):
been proven and was asked. Itwas a suggestion of actor David Selby,
who plays Richard, and his thoughtswere when he first time show, he
was very dark and unempathetic and sympatheticcharacter. He thought the contrast that he

(01:10):
drank milk, but offset that abit, and I, you know,
you think about it, he goes, that is kind of one of those
like it's like, say he's drinkinghot chocolate. It's like, you know,
he drink It's like this hardened characterwho's rough and tumble and ruthless,
but he drinks milk. But ofcourse, as the seasons went on,

(01:33):
Richard mill Out, you have avery good comic character, comic type character
on the show. But also he'sstill ruthless, Like he didn't lose that
completely, but he was softened abit and given some empathy when it came
to Angela, when it came toMaggie all our stuff. So, but
he still drink the milk. Hestill drink the milk. I think of

(01:55):
Star Wars the Blue Milk, Soit's funny milk. So the whole thing
about milk, it's I guess it'spure. It's it's like when you're a
kid, you always drink, sayyou drink milk, So I guess it's
childlike. Possibly, what do youguys think about that about the whole milk
thing. I like the contrast.I love it. It's like it's just
something that just kind of outrageous andI love it. But what do you
