Real Friends Classic: 121 My Sacrificial Clam with Neil Flynn

We're hoping in the way back time machine, all the way to season one, to revisit a conversation with the beloved Neil Flynn.

This is a revisit episode. I wasn't here for this one so I don't have much to say except it was very good having Neil Flynn around. Fantastic early episode choice.

Sitcom representation of Midwest Dads. β€” Neil Flynn Appreciation

Most of the time when you see midwestern dads on sitcoms, it’s the fat goofball who nobody took seriously.

Man, Neil Flynn killed this role! As someone who grew up in the Midwest, we all knew this kind of dad. The dad who you never approached because he never talked. The dad who was stoic. The dad who was a wonderful person but was just reserved.

I couldn’t think of anyone who could do this role better than Neil Flynn!

This series was so awesome I watched it twice. Really appreciate the soundtrack too! Neil Diamond, kids! The songs they picked were awesome and fit so well. The Flynn’s dancing in the living room to Holly Holy was adorable!

I love Neil Diamond and I don’t care who knows lol. Great series. The writing. The casting. The story. The soundtrack. So good! I hope you all enjoyed as much as I did!

Now that the middle has ended, I wanna see a breaking bad ripoff starting Neil Flynn 🀣🀣

What do y’all think, if this were to happen, I think the title for this show would be called β€œBad” hahah since β€œThe Middle” took out the first couple of words in their title. Because Bryan Cranston has stared as a meth dealer after mitm, now it’s Neil Flynn’s turn to star as that lol

Was Jason Neil Flynn?

On Thursday’s postgame pod, following Kate Fagan’s insightful report on the women’s Olympic team there was a skit revolving around a blind race care driver named Lee.

Lee was joined by a character named Jason, who I believe was voiced by Neil Flynn. I have nothing to go on other than being a Scrubs fan, and thought the way he said β€œman” reminded me of a couple scenes from Scrubs.

Love the show, and also want to note Dan really sold this bit for his part at the beginning. I love that they are doing this and am curious who the other actors actually are.

Neil Flynn in Superman: Man of Tomorrow

I may be late to this, but I found out that Neil Flynn does the voice of Jonathan Kent in the August 2020 animated film Superman: Man of Tomorrow. Since I've been binge watching The Middle for the past few weeks I started watching this movie today and there's a huge dissonance going on in my brain. I hear Mike Heck but obviously see a completely different guy, it's crazy and weird haha.

Nothing more, I just wanted to share :-) the movie is in HBO Max and Jonathan Kent is in the first 5 minutes in case you want to check this out and see if it feels weird to you too

Neil Flynn, the "Janitor" in Scrubs, cameoed in Clone High as "Glenn the janitor" -- both shows made by the same creators. A running gag in Scrubs was that no one knew Janitor's actual name; the creators payed homage to Clone High six years later by revealing the Janitor's real name as Glenn.

Why did Neil Flynn say so?

In the latest panel Neil said something like I wasn’t a major character or something similar, and this really bothered me cause honestly his presence in the show added a lot and not just by torturing JD. He actually interacted with everyone and had his own arcs/stories(i know they were a bit minimized). I mean Scrubs without Dr Jan finding cure for Polio would definitely be missing a lot.

Watching scrubs again, the middle really wasted Neil Flynn's talents

The Janitor is BRILLIANT, whereas Mike Heck, his character on the middle is almost painfully boring. I wish he had a better role to showcase his talents, the man is hilarious
