They've got Emmys, they've got chemistry, and they've agreed to talk to us! Today, we're chatting with none other than Ray Romano and Patricia Heaton! These two have been making us laugh since the '90s on one of TV's most successful and funniest sitcoms, Everybody Loves Raymond - and now they’re back together to chat about their reunion on The Middle. We talk about Ray rewatching his own show and giving each episode a grade, Patty's hilarious faux pas when she asked Neil Flynn how it felt to finally have lines, and what it’s like to be part of the upswing in rewatch culture.
