On today's episode entertainment writer Jim Colucci give us snippets about what it takes to write books about some of the greatest shows in TV history and an endearing story about finally nailing an interview with Bea Arthur.

Since 2008, he has covered television and other entertainment media in his popular blog, Must Hear TV.

For over ten years, Jim also delivered a weekly on-air version of “Must Hear TV” as a correspondent for “The Frank DeCaro Show” on Sirius XM radio. In the fall of 2004, Time Inc. released Jim’s official, authorized companion book to one of NBC’s biggest comedy hits, titled Will & Grace: Fabulously Uncensored. His second TV book, The Q Guide to The Golden Girls, was released by Alyson Books in September, 2006.

Interviewees have included Jayne Meadows, Arthur Rankin, Rue McClanahan, Cloris Leachman, Phylicia Rashad, Tyne Daly, Barbara Feldon, Sam Waterston, James Lipton, Chuck Barris, S. Epatha Merkerson, Jeffrey Tambor, and Bernie Kopell.
