1.05: MURPHY'S PONY
Written by: Diane English
Directed by: Barnet Kellman
​
It’s that time of year! A TV tradition since the dawn of the 'tube: the Christmas Episode! Jesi and Lauren go deep into Murphy Brown’s first Christmas (and Hanukkah) episode, “Murphy’s Pony,” written by series creator, Diane English. Topics include: snowstorms, Murphy’s outfits, toys, Murphy tirades…and then we end the show with a Yiddish lesson from co-host Lauren.
