30 Rock's Jack Donaghy once said, "Never go with a hippie to a second location." In 1997, a man named Gregory Montgomery defied that advice, and then some — not only did he go to a baseball game with a hippie, he also flew to Reno and got married to her, all within 24 hours.
And that's just the first five minutes of Dharma & Greg, Chuck Lorre's spirited comedy about two opposites who fall in love, and deal with the fall-out between their mismatched families. It's the subject of our latest episode of TV. Watch. Repeat., in which my co-host Allison Piwowarski and I dive into the very under-covered history of the series, including how anger, surprisingly, was the main inspiration behind the entire show.
So grab your yoga mat and enjoy the story of Dharma & Greg on our latest episode of TV. Watch. Repeat. on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. And be sure to check out our other pop culture podcast, Pop Chaser, for all your entertainment headline needs!
