Chapter 8: What are Malin Akerman's thoughts on the current state of television?
And then, of course, everyone was wearing those buttons, the smiley face with the bullet, you know, the bleed, the bullet.
Oh, that's right.
Remember? Everyone was wearing those. I was victim to that, too. I think I wore a button around for a while. But just such a beautiful young lady and such a great part in The Watchmen. It's such a complicated and layered movie and a very long one at that, nonetheless. And then have watched her in so many other comedic roles that she's taken on. Sitcoms and television shows. Children's Hospital.
I think she was in like 40 episodes already. Have you ever watched Children's Hospital?
I didn't watch it, but I saw that that was on Adult Swim.
It was so good. That show was so good. It was on for a long time, I think. It was on for a very long time on Adult Swim. And if I'm not mistaken, another one of our guests, Paul Scheer, was in Children's Hospital also. I think so. I think I might be right about that. Okay, Malin Ackerman. We're going to put a link to our brand new Netflix series.
We wish that you would go watch it because these people don't come here for their health. They come here because they love Brian and Chrissy. Then secondarily, they're promoting something. And today we're promoting the Netflix show, The Hunting Wives. So go watch it. Click on the link. Watch it on your own Netflix subscription. If you need my login, let me know and I'll send it to you. And then.
They're cracking down on that.
They are cracking down on that. We know that here in this family because we have a few stragglers who were out there in the wind using our Netflix account. We didn't know that until they said, did you change your password? And I said, are you still using my Netflix account? Yes. But they couldn't get in even using our password. It said too many people are logged in from different locations.
