My newest interview subject, Donna Mills, made an impression on viewers as Abby Cunningham on the classic prime time soap Knots Landing. With her wonderful acting skills and her piercing eyes, the care of which was showcased in a 1986 video called Donna Mills: The Eyes Have It, she captivated audiences, and still does so to this day. We talked on Tuesday, May 28th, about works of her’s from the 70s to the modern day, and I hope you all enjoy getting to know her. Say hello to Donna Mills! Donna: How are you? Johnny: I’m doing good. Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to do this. Donna: That’s okay. My pleasure. Johnny: Alright. I have my questions ready to go, starting with this: In the upcoming movie Carol Of The Bells, you play Helen Harris. How did you get involved in that film?

My next interview subject, Sherri Stoner, has easily been my biggest influence as a writer. I did not have a good personal life in the 90s, and because of all the troubles I had in the decade, I don’t have fond memories of a lot of the decade’s pop culture. There are some exceptions, though, and Sherri Stoner was involved with them. As the model for Belle in Beauty And The Beast, she helped create a character I found myself relating to as I made my way through a school system that didn’t understand the issues involved with Asperger’s Syndrome. As a writer for Tiny Toon Adventures and Animaniacs, and with her voice work on the latter, she created cartoons that had me in hysterics and would help to fuel my early writing endeavors. As the co-writer of 1995’s Casper, she created a movie that was a very cathartic experience for me in the wake of my father’s passing. Sherri Stoner was also very active in the 80s as well,

2018 marks the 30th anniversary of A Nightmare On Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. Another memorable entry in the franchise, the movie starred Lisa Wilcox as Alice Johnson, who inherits the power to pull people into her dreams from Kristen Parker (played by Tuesday Knight, taking over for Patricia Arquette who played her in Dream Warriors). Since that movie, like many others in the franchise, had an impact on current filmgoers, I knew that Lisa Wilcox would make for an interesting interview subject, especially as they’re more to her than her work in the NOES franchise. If you were watching TV in the 80s and 90s, the chances were very good that Lisa would be making a guest appearance on the show. On Tuesday, February 6th, I spoke to her about her wide and varied career, and I hope you all enjoy getting to know her. Say hello to Lisa Wilcox! Johnny: I thank you for taking the time to do this. Lisa: Sure. Johnny: Alright. I start off
