Though his popularity exploded after Netflix’s SOMEBODY FEED PHIL, Phil Rosenthal has changed the world with his talent as a Writer, Creator and Producer. If you love EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND, you’re already a fan of his work, being one of the masterminds behind the beloved Sitcom. SOMEBODY FEED PHIL, a hybrid travel and food show showcasing Rosenthal‘s charm front and center, has shown staying power, its viewership continuing to climb even after seven seasons. We hear an eighth season is very likely on the way.
Rosenthal spoke with Brad Smith at The Danforth Music Hall tonight, as part of his AN EVENING WITH PHIL ROSENTHAN OF SOMEBODY FEED PHIL Tour which was just in Buffalo and next heads to Ottawa. We were so lucky to get our hands on tickets to this amazing conversation, which saw a full house who even got to ask questions at the end in a Q&A period.
Some highlights from the night, including excerpts from his in-conversation:
We had the joy of meeting Rosenthal. Huge fan of his Series and cannot wait for some new episodes and maybe finally a Toronto episode!
