Warning: Spoilers
After appearing on a talk show that interviews authors, Dick is given the opportunity to host said show. Michael, Peter Scolari;s producer character, is worthless. He offers no help and has no aptitude for the job. This one is great. A dignified man comes on, claiming to have made a trip up the amazon where he spotted dinosaurs. It gets even better as Dick navigates a half hour of torture. One of the funniest things you will see.

Enter Michael Harris

Dick is asked to host a talk show interviewing authors.

A great turning point and very funny episode. Peter Scolari appears for the first time as Michael Harris, the ratings grabbing TV producer. The scene where Dick interviews a man who wrote about a trip up the Amazon is hilarious. It is also the first of many great episodes involving Dick's talk show.
