Ian Talks Comedy
Larry Strawther

Larry Strawther got into show business as a gofer for the Merv Griffin Show. He went on to write for Laverne & Shirley, Happy Days, My Sister Sam, The Sinbad Show and Night Stand.
His Most Extreme Elimination Challenge is still a cult classic among 20 and 30 year olds.
But for me, he is best known as the executive producer (1989 - 1990), producer (1988-1989) and writer (1987 - 1990) for my favorite sitcom, Night Court. He also wrote my all-time favorite episode of television Night Court's "Another Day in the Life" and tries to stump me with his copy of the script.
He also talks about working with Marion Ross, Harry Anderson, Dianne English, Reinhold Weege and Robert Goulet.
