A Message from Mary M. Dalton


Along with Laura R. Linder, I am co-editor of The Sitcom Reader: America Re-viewed, Still Skewed. When I decided to build my undergraduate seminar Culture and the Sitcom around the book and to develop an online version of the course, I decided to interview contributors to the anthology to make the class come alive in a new way for my students.

Feel free to include the content here in your own classes, use it as a resource for your own scholarship, or watch and read the interviews for fun. Just use the interviews here in whatever ways they work for you!
