Dan BernsteinHOST
But they take chances, they swing hard, and your jaw drops when you realize what that cast was.
Dan BernsteinHOST
And at one point starting out when Harold Ramis was in the cast and the head writer, and you're talking about John Candy and Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas and Andrea Martin and Catherine O'Hara and Martin Short and Joe Flaherty and anybody else that came through there that I missed or I failed to mention.
Dan BernsteinHOST
You're brilliant, brilliant, brilliant people.

SCTV, also known as Second City TV, was a low-budget sketch comedy show that originated in Canada in the mid-1970s and continued in syndication and on network and cable TV until 1984.
Tonya MosleyHOST
Its cast members over the years have included John Candy, Martin Short, Catherine O'Hara, and Andrea Martin, and the entire series has generally been unavailable to watch.
Tonya MosleyHOST
But beginning this month, all six seasons of SCTV are available to stream on Netflix.

Some program offerings, like English for Beginners, are the kind of shows early morning TV used to present all the time, aimed at serving the public.

Catherine O'Hara plays the stern instructor, and Andrea Martin plays her confused but eager student.

Hello, and welcome to English for Beginners.

Welcome to Q.

So where do you feel most at home? Is it at your own house, you know, the place you spend time with? Is it with your friends, maybe hanging out, playing sports or something like that? Is it when you're doing a particular thing? For the actor Andrea Martin, she's always felt her best and most at home when she's performing.
Tom PowerHOST
It started when she was a kid, and acting kind of became an outlet for her creativity.
Tom PowerHOST
By the time she was in her 20s, she'd been cast in this now legendary Canadian production of Godspell, and then SCTV, the sketch show she made alongside her friends Catherine O'Hara and John Candy and Martin Short, etc., She won Tony's for My Favorite Year and Pippin on Broadway.
Tom PowerHOST
I mean, I think you can relate to that too, right? Like sometimes the best thing about work is the social element, the chatting, the camaraderie, the inside jokes.
Tom PowerHOST
That's what can make a bad day better.
Tom PowerHOST
Andrea Martin came in because she received something called the Icon Award by the Hollywood reporter Women Entertainment Canada for her career.
Tom PowerHOST
But I wasn't prepared for how honest she would be about her own family and chosen family and how she put me through my paces.
Chris FeilHOST
Oh, so good.
Chris FeilHOST
I love Andrea Martin in this.
Chris FeilHOST
Have you ever watched the deleted scenes?
Joe ReidHOST

Chris FeilHOST
they were trying to put in a whole bit which i'm sure was like andrea martin's idea or something that phyllis stein had like an implant in her teeth that like she could answer her phone with her teeth
Joe ReidHOST
Andrea
Chris FeilHOST
Martin.
Chris FeilHOST
I think this movie registers and lives on with people who love it for many, many, many, many reasons.

They were alternatively construed as out-of-touch and elite.

The comedians Catherine O'Hara and Andrea Martin satirized those tropes in a 1981 parody sketch called i'm taking my own head screwing it on right and no guy's gonna tell me it ain't in which o'hara proclaims she's happy only when she's working twenty-one hours a day and Martin complains that she feels like a prisoner in her own home.

Even as series like The Mary Tyler Moore Show used humor to gently push forward feminist ideals, feminists were typically the butt of jokes in stand-up routines and on late-night shows.

After that scene, and they tease the appearance of Moogie, you're going, well, what's about to happen? Because we remember the first appearance of Ishka, who is Cork and Ram's Moogie, was played by Andrea Martin.
Alice WetterlundHOST
And Andrea Martin is amazing and was incredible.
Alice WetterlundHOST
And really, that episode was one of our higher rated, frangy ones ever.
Alice WetterlundHOST
I mean, one of my favorite episodes, period.
Alice WetterlundHOST
And then she was recast, unfortunately, because I was like, is it going to be Andrea Martin? Did she come back? And she didn't come back.
Alice WetterlundHOST
I'm not seeing anything in the memory alpha about it.
Alice WetterlundHOST
I'm sure there's some lore or like maybe a little fight that was had, but it's not...

just kind of like that.
John CrossHOST
You know what I mean? They should have been looking at Andrea Martin all the time.
John CrossHOST
But instead of looking at Andrea Martin, they're looking at some bimbo on the beach and they'll figure it out.
John CrossHOST
You know, they'll grow up and they'll figure it out that they should have been looking at Andrea Martin and her friend all the time instead of looking at the bimbos on the beach or whatever in, in that movie.

And so, you know, the two nerds are non-threatening the, the environmentalist character, like, yeah, he's a, a bore and he's, you know, um, a nerd about it.
