    Could Leonard have been any less prepared for an interview than he was with Bea Arthur? From not knowing it was only the first season being released on DVD to asking if the politics of Reagan had anything to do with the show ending (when it ended in the spring of 1978...two years before Reagan was elected.) Even a quick look at Wikipedia would have made for a less painful interview.

    Painful for both, I thought. Where was Bea Arthur? In NY or LA? It was very confusing. In general she sounded a bit confused about the whole thing (for example about whether they were discussin "All in the Family" or "Maude", and Leonard didn't do much to provide guidance. A pity.
