I kissed him [Robert Duncan McNeill] at the end of the episode, and he was standing on an apple box because God forbid you’re the same height as the girl. And then, I made out with him [Tim Russ] in real life.
I am now very jealous of Tim Russ.
I grew up on Dr. Katz.
Due to that, Laura will always have a special place in my heart over Sarah.
Funny, I just re-watched all of Dr. Katz on YouTube. Also, Audible did an audio revival of Dr. Katz a few years ago. There are a criminally low number of episodes and they’re all shorter than a Comedy Central episode, but they’re still very funny.
There’s also a live “episode” of Dr. Katz with Jonathan Katz, H. Jon Benjamin, Laura Silverman and a whole lot of comedians on YouTube which I highly recommend.
I have high quality DVD rips of the entire series plus rips of shorts from Short Attention Span Theater that preceded Dr. Katz, as well as the aforementioned live episode, with one of my favorite Maria Bamford performances (“I wish you were different!” “I am different!”)
H. Jon Benjamin will always live in my mind as Ben Katz.
Also Dr. Katz wad ahead of its time in “kindness television.” We have stuff like Tad Lasso or Joe Pera now that is less snarky and mean, but in the 90’s only Dr. Katz was so full of love he let his adult son live with him indefinitely.
Lol Tom is short.
To be fair, they’re about the same height. But Berman is a sexist pig.
“Look, either we make the guy taller or I turn this into an Angel One or Code of Honor remake” – Berman, probably.
It doesn’t make sense for her to say that. According to google Robert is 1.84 meters tall and Sarah is 1.7 meters tall. That’s 1cm over 6 ft for him and just about 5’7" for her. Why would he stand on an applebox? Does he need to tower over her? Also looking back at the episode he appears about 5 inches taller than her in most shots where they’re standing together so he doesn’t appear to be using an applebox. I think she is misremembering.
They showed that on the Meyers interview. He was a different height when they kissed than in other shots.
Go Tim!
Could they shill the fucking paramount sub any harder in this article lol

Re ears, Tim Russ didn’t wear the ears for most of the episode since he wore a hat to “hide” his Vulcan ears.
But I assume he put them on.

He better have put them on. And done the eyebrows. Otherwise I know I would have refused to make out with him!
(Also, I’m CisHet, but any port in a storm…)
