Join us as we hop into the time machine and rewind to 1984, where we reminisce about Jim Carrey's first lead role in the quirky TV sitcom "The Duck Factory." This conversation unwraps the layers of the show, from its hopeful beginnings as a mid-season replacement to its untimely demise. Listen in as we explore the role Carrey played as Skip Tarkington, a departure from his usual zany persona, and ponder whether this straight-man act might have masked his comedic genius. We also shed light on the authenticity brought to the show by co-creator Alan Burns's animation background, and how this series, despite its brevity, still holds a special place in our hearts.
