Annie Potts has starred in some iconic movies and TV shows - “Ghostbusters,” “Toy Story,” “Designing Women,” and “Young Sheldon” just to name a few. Annie talks with me about her latest role as Aunt Sarah the “lobsterwoman” on “Best Medicine” (new episodes air Tuesdays at 8pm ET on FOX and stream the next day on HULU); how she balanced motherhood amidst 22-episodes-a-season on “Designing Women”; her now-viral “Tonight Show” moment with Shelley Winters; and what convinced her to take the role of Bo Peep in “Toy Story” (hint: it wasn’t her agent who talked her into it!).
