She was the moral compass of Knots Landing and one of primetime TV’s most unforgettable characters. Michele Lee — the actress, singer, director, and producer who brought Karen MacKenzie to life for 14 seasons — joins Steve Kmetko for a wide-ranging, funny, and deeply personal conversation.
Michele shares behind-the-scenes stories from the Knots Landing set, from fan-favorite romances to the infamous pranks, and reflects on how her character helped shape conversations about marriage, equality, and resilience on television. She also takes us back to her Broadway roots (How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Seesaw), her leap into directing at a time when women weren’t always welcomed behind the camera, and her personal journey through love, loss, and new beginnings.
Along the way, she opens up about friendships with Joan Van Ark and Donna Mills, why Knots Landing still resonates today, and a surprising mid-air encounter with George Clooney that only Michele could tell.
From the Broadway stage to the Seaview Circle cul-de-sac, Michele Lee proves why she’s a timeless star who’s still here, still sharp, and still inspiring.

Plus, Jerry gives a shoutout to Horatio Sanz and explains how improv training at Upright Citizens Brigade reshaped his entire career and made hosting The Talk possible.

Jerry O’Connell gets candid about career highs, lows, and the absolute surrealness of Hollywood — including reading prison fan mail sent to his wife, Rebecca Romijn. In this raw and hilarious segment of Still Here Hollywood, Jerry opens up about hitting career downturns, adjusting to life as a talk show host, and the power of saying yes to improv (thanks to a nudge from SNL alum Horatio Sanz). He also shares behind-the-scenes thoughts on the rise of unscripted TV, binge culture, The Crown, and why no one under 30 watches what we used to call “appointment television.” From Upright Citizens Brigade lessons to late-night Princess Diana plot twists, this is peak Jerry — brutally honest, endlessly entertaining, and weirdly obsessed with reading inmate fan mail.

With stories about audition flubs, dog parenting (meet Cat the dog), navigating fame, and his unexpected moments with legends like Teri Garr and Nathan Lane, this episode blends heart, humor, and Hollywood nostalgia in the best way possible. #StevenWeber #StillHereHollywood #SteveKmetko #Studio60 #TheProducers #WingsTVShow #ChicagoMed #BroadwayStories #HollywoodIcons #90sSitcoms #ActorInterview #BehindTheScenes #TVLegends #MelBrooks #StevenWeberInterview Show Credits

In this hilarious and heartwarming episode of Still Here Hollywood, Steven Weber (Wings, Chicago Med, Studio 60) dives into his most memorable celebrity run-ins—from spotting Dolly Parton mid-traffic rant, to brushing elbows with Barbara Streisand, Kathy Bates, and Stephen Soderbergh—all while still geeking out like the lifelong fan he is. Steven and host Steve Kmetko swap unbelievable Hollywood moments, discuss their mutual love of dogs (meet “Cat the dog”), and wax nostalgic about Chicago’s theater scene, including the legendary Second City, Steppenwolf, and Goodman Theatre. Weber reflects on his improv roots, regrets about fanboying too hard, and why being cast as “the affable jerk” was both a blessing and a typecast. This episode is a wild ride through Hollywood history, fan encounters, and aging in an industry that doesn’t always age with you. #StevenWeber #StillHereHollywood #SteveKmetko #CelebrityStories #WingsTVShow #ChicagoMed #BarbaraStreisand #DollyParton #StephenSoderbergh #SecondCityChicago #SteppenwolfTheatre #ImprovComedy #HollywoodIcons #BehindTheScenes #TVLegends #BroadwayToHollywood #ActorInterview #StevenWeberInterview Show Credits
