This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Dr. Carter from E.R., Noah Wyle. Medical dramas on television have been around pretty much since the advent of the picture tube. There was “Dr. Kildare” in the 60’s. “Marcus Welby, MD” in the 70’s, “St. Elsewhere” was in the 80’s… But starting in the 90’s there was one team of diligent doctors that stitched their way to critical acclaim and 23 emmy awards. It also propelled its actors to true stardom. There was even a future Batman hidden in the scrubs.

| 29 Jul 2024 | Debbe Dunning "Home Improvement" Encore | 00:38:32 | |
This is STILL HERE HOLLYWOOD. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me, with today’s guest, and one of the stars of “Home Improvement”, Debbe Dunning. In the 1990’s television was in its heyday… The bulk of shows were still on the four broadcast networks. No streaming yet. Some cable. It was great. One show on ABC catapulted some of its early stars into worldwide superstardom. One went to “Infinity and beyond”. Another went to the beach. But when a cast changes on a TV hit, the show obviously, must sill go on. There was one actor who perfectly filled the shoes and tool belt of the previous star in order to help keep the show on the air for years.

| 12 Aug 2024 | Jerry O'Connell. "Jerry Maguire" Encore | 00:54:03 | |
If you're one to pay attention to Hollywood tabloids you'd know that it's fairly rare to a child actor to keep their career thriving deep into adulthood. One versitile star, who was in his first hit film at 11 years old, has thrived for decades as an actor and has pivoted into the world of Talk and Game Show hosting. But despite the many roles and successes he has raked up in his 40 year career, his most important role is being a dad to daughters. This is Still Here Hollywood, I'm Steve Kmetko. Join me with today's guest, Jerry O'Connell.

| 19 Feb 2024 | Brian Dunkleman "American Idol" Pt 2 | 00:36:45 | |
This is Part 2 of Steve Kmetko's chat with Brian Dunkleman who has a lot to say about his experience at American Idol...One of the biggest television shows of the last generation is American Idol. It's the singing talent show that helped define reality TV launching stars like Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, and Jennifer Hudson. If you look back through the history of the show you'll find that in the beginning the iconic series had two hosts, Ryan Seacrest and Brian Dunkleman. One host went on to become a TV mogul. The other, at one point, ended up driving an Uber. You guess which is which...

| 26 Aug 2024 | Chad Lowe "Life Goes On" | 01:20:49 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, director, and Emmy winning actor, Chad Lowe. Actors in Hollywood often wear different hats throughout their career. Most are content performing the lines and roles written for them. Others like to branch out and flex as many creative muscles as they can, all while lending support to who might be their famous siblings and spouses. And sometimes people in Hollywood don’t necessarily get the “thanks” the observers think they might deserve.

| 27 May 2024 | Steven Weber "Wings" Encore | 01:03:37 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, and one of the stars of “Wings”, Steven Weber. One of the biggest phrases ever dreamed up in the TV marketing world, was “Must See TV”. In the 90’s, NBC and “Must See TV” became destination television for the entire country on Thursday nights. There was Seinfeld, Friends, Frasier, ER… And another show that was perfectly cast, about a tiny airline in Nantucket, run by two witty and engaging brothers. That show was “Wings”.

| 11 Nov 2024 | Tim Matheson "Animal House" | 00:56:50 | |
This is STILL HERE HOLLYWOOD. I”m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Otter from NATIONAL LAMPOON’S ANIMAL HOUSE, actor, director, and now author, Tim Matheson. In 1978, movie theaters were packed to the gills with box office blockbusters. The top three movies were GREASE, SUPERMAN, and an unlikely raunchy hit about a trouble making fraternity. That film was NATIONAL LAMPOON’S ANIMAL HOUSE. Besides the other breakout stars like John Belushi, Kevin Bacon, and Tom Hulce, there was one smooth talking frat boy, with a twinkle in his eye, who stole every scene he was in.
Tim Matheson's book is available on Amazon. "Damn Glad to Meet You: My Seven Decades in the Hollywood Trenches" https://a.co/d/gElnrnX

This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me and today’s guest from Frasier, Peri Gilpin. Strong, independent, women in TV comedies have always been a hallmark of the genre. Dishing out laughs, while solving problems with wisecracks, is comedy gold. For 11 seasons, starting in 1993, there was one woman on NBC who perfectly sliced and diced the punchlines with her sharp tongued delivery.

| 30 Sep 2024 | Lea Thompson "Back To The Future" | 00:46:37 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, from the iconic film “Back to the Future”, actress and director, Lea Thompson. So much of Hollywood looks back toward the past instead of ahead to the future. How much did your last movie make? What were last night’s ratings…? Today we are graced to have someone whose career took off by combining the past and future. She has starred in, and directed, a ridiculous number of films and television shows. Of course, if you travel “Back To The Future”, you’ll see her in the role that made her a household name as a co-star of one of the biggest movie franchises of the 1980’s and beyond.

| 15 Jul 2024 | Jillian Barberie "NFL on Fox" Encore | 00:55:27 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Host - Actress - Model, and cancer survivor, Jillian Barberie. If there’s anything you learn about when coming to California to “give it a try” in Hollywood, is that it’s rarely as glamorous or carefree as it may appear. Chasing stardom can lead down many paths. And becoming the “personality” that you’re hired to be, can be a challenge. And sometimes life tosses a wring into those plans and career. And it’s not always a small wrench.

As a longtime entertainment reporter, I'm accustimed to "asking" the questions... The rule has been, if you're holding the microphone, your job is to find out about the person you're aiming the mic at. Today is different... I was asked to leave hollyood 20 years ago. Let's just say it wasn't my choice. Then again, to say that my life has been a strugggle after leaving the red carpets and achnor chair, would be overstating things. A little. I knew the job was dangerous when i took it. ;) This is Still Here Hollywood, and today, I'll telll you the story that I've never told, fully. In recovery you learn "you're only as sick as your secrets". So with that in mind, I'm leaving the questioning to "Friend of the podcast", actor Amy Yasbeck.

| 02 Sep 2024 | Breckin Meyer "Clueless" Encore | 00:39:17 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest from Clueless, Breckin Meyer. Some “Teen Movies” only hit home with their target audience: teens. Most of those films come and go from theaters without a lot of fanfare. But once in a while a movie comes along with adorable characters and spectacular lines that live on forever, filed away under “Smarmy” in our vocabularies. In 1995, one skateboarding / stoner character won over audiences with his slightly buzzed kindness. He immediately became a heartthrob who would go on to bring that charm and talent to dozens of productions both in front of, and behind the camera. Whatever…

This is Still Here Hollywood. I'm Steve Kmetko. Join me with today's guest, actor Eric McCormack of "Will & Grace". Every once in a while a show comes along that not only entertains, but also opens viewer minds to a world that they knew nothing about, and maybe were a little afraid of. Staring in the late 1990's and again recently, one of the funniest shows on TV went a long way in easing some preconceived notions about how some people in our world live their lives...

This is STILL HERE HOLLYWOOD, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Natasha Henstridge of “Species”. In Hollywood, aliens coming to earth has been a “go to” theme for screenwriters for decades. And of course, not all of the “creatures from the beyond” are as adorable and gentle as “ET”. Some are here to wreak havoc among the human race… In 1995, one classic alien movie brought a horrible creature to earth, perfectly packaged as one of the most beautiful women to ever walk our planet.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, and prosecutor Sylvia Costas from NYPD BLUE,, Sharon Lawrence. Now I know that not many, if any, of you will remember the show DRAGNET, because it originally aired in the 1950’s, I mean I was barely around then. But DRAGNET was one of the first big TV “Cop Shows” that came on just a smidge after TV was invented. Since then, police dramas have pretty much taken up residence on network television schedules… In the 1980’s there was one show that broke the mold, showing the personal side of the people in law enforcement and the judicial system. That show was NYPD BLUE.

| 17 Feb 2025 | Bronson Pinchot "Beverly Hills Cop" | 01:04:47 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Serge from “Beverly Hills Cop”, Bronson Pinchot. Accents in film and television can very much define an actor's devotion to their craft. Whether it’s Meryl Streep’s Polish accent in Sofie’s Choice, or Frances McDormand’s Minnesota dialect in “Fargo”, the formation of those voices tell the story of where the character is from. But, there’s one actor who reached overnight fame in the 1980’s for his uniquely hilarious accent that left the movie-going world scratching their heads.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Producer and host, Melissa Rivers. You hear the term “Like father, like son” alot, but come on, what year is it… “Like mother, like daughter” is often much more fitting. Especially for today’s show. Because there was one mom-daughter team that ruled television for a while. The mom, was one of the most famous comedians in the history of stand-up. The daughter, a chip off the old block. Not with comedy, per se, but with a smarmy honesty that related to the viewers.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, and prosecutor Sylvia Costas from NYPD BLUE,, Sharon Lawrence. Now I know that not many, if any, of you will remember the show DRAGNET, because it originally aired in the 1950’s, I mean I was barely around then. But DRAGNET was one of the first big TV “Cop Shows” that came on just a smidge after TV was invented. Since then, police dramas have pretty much taken up residence on network television schedules… In the 1980’s there was one show that broke the mold, showing the personal side of the people in law enforcement and the judicial system. That show was NYPD BLUE.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, from the iconic film “Back to the Future”, actress and director, Lea Thompson. So much of Hollywood looks back toward the past instead of ahead to the future. How much did your last movie make? What were last night’s ratings…? Today we are graced to have someone whose career took off by combining the past and future. She has starred in, and directed, a ridiculous number of films and television shows. Of course, if you travel “Back To The Future”, you’ll see her in the role that made her a household name as a co-star of one of the biggest movie franchises of the 1980’s and beyond.

This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Host - Actress - Model, and cancer survivor, Jillian Barberie. If there’s anything you learn about when coming to California to “give it a try” in Hollywood, is that it’s rarely as glamorous or carefree as it may appear. Chasing stardom can lead down many paths. And becoming the “personality” that you’re hired to be, can be a challenge. And sometimes life tosses a wring into those plans and career. And it’s not always a small wrench.

This episode trailer is a quick preview of what's to come on STILL HERE HOLLYWOOD with Steve Kmetko. Steve will be talking to the biggest stars of film and TV along with some we haven't seen in a while. For years Steve was a fixture on Red Carpets all over the world. He anchored E! News Daily and was the entertainment reporter for CBS News. If you saw the Ben Stiller movie Zoolander, you'll remember Steve on the red carpet doing all of the interviews near the beginning of the film. In his career Steve has interviewed virtually every major movie star ranging from Bette Davis, to Julia Roberts. Steve left the business 20 years ago, but has returned for this podcast where he'll have intimate chats with the household names you you know and love. Steve is STILL HERE HOLLYWOOD. And this time he's sticking around.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me, with today’s guest, Cliff Clavin from “Cheers”, John Ratzenberger. A “Hail Mary” pass is pretty much a football term, and of course a prayer, but that’s the point.. Several decades ago, one auditioning actor (who was shown the door), held that door open long enough to toss a Hail Mary pass to the producers. That last second pitch landed him the role of an iconic character in one of the biggest TV comedies of the 20th century.

One of those shows centered around he driest, funniest, comedians of our time. The late Bob Newhart. And on his signature show bearing his name, was an actress, a “Designing Women”, who leapt off of the screen where she stole every scene she was in.

| 15 Apr 2024 | Breckin Meyer "Clueless" | 00:39:17 | |
This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest from Clueless, Breckin Meyer. Some “Teen Movies” only hit home with their target audience: teens. Most of those films come and go from theaters without a lot of fanfare. But once in a while a movie comes along with adorable characters and spectacular lines that live on forever, filed away under “Smarmy” in our vocabularies. In 1995, one skateboarding / stoner character won over audiences with his slightly buzzed kindness. He immediately became a heartthrob who would go on to bring that charm and talent to dozens of productions both in front of, and behind the camera. Whatever…

When you think about the biggest comedy shows in television’s history, there are always a few things that stand out. There’s of course the writing. The ensemble cast. Sometimes, the music. And there’s very often at least one character who’s name resonates, staying in pop culture for decades. This fact is pretty much the “norm”. And it’s that Norm, that I’m talking about…

There are some shows that will go down in TV history as setting the bar for a specific genre. And when those shows have ensemble casts, it pretty much raises the status of every actor on the screen.
When it comes to cop shows that viewers and critics collectively have loved, one specific police drama and its characters from the 1990’s and beyond stands out.
This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me today with Donna Abandando from NYPD Blue, actor Gail O’Grady.

This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me and today’s guest from Frasier, Peri Gilpin. Strong, independent, women in TV comedies have always been a hallmark of the genre. Dishing out laughs, while solving problems with wisecracks, is comedy gold. For 11 seasons, starting in 1993, there was one woman on NBC who perfectly sliced and diced the punchlines with her sharp tongued delivery.

In Hollywood, aliens coming to earth has been a “go to” theme for screenwriters for decades. And of course, not all of the “creatures from the beyond” are as adorable and gentle as “ET”. Some are here to wreak havoc among the human race… In 1995, one classic alien movie brought a horrible creature to earth, perfectly packaged as one of the most beautiful women to ever walk our planet.

Peterman, on Seinfeld, actor John O’Hurley. “Over The Top” is a term that is often used as a kind of a slam to someone’s personality. But in Hollywood, playing a role “Over The Top” can make you stand out. And if you’re lucky, it could land you as an iconic character in one of the biggest shows in television history.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, and one of the stars of “Wings”, Steven Weber. One of the biggest phrases ever dreamed up in the TV marketing world, was “Must See TV”. In the 90’s, NBC and “Must See TV” became destination television for the entire country on Thursday nights. There was Seinfeld, Friends, Frasier, ER… And another show that was perfectly cast, about a tiny airline in Nantucket, run by two witty and engaging brothers. That show was “Wings”.

To many of you, this will sound like ancient history, like the Pyramids, or Elvis. But these three words, “Saturday Night Fever”, ruled the movie world in the late 1970’s. It made John Travolta a movie star instead of just Vinnie Barbarino. It made the Bee Gee’s pop icons. And it catapulted today’s guest into dramatic actor history.

Back in the day, Saturday night television was a huge opportunity for the three networks to create “family TV”. And for a decade, starting in the late 70’s, there was a show that besides topping the ratings, was family friendly, and also became a huge promotion for a sailing vacations. Let’s just call it the pre-precursor to today’s “Below Deck”.

This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Dr. Carter from E.R., Noah Wyle. Medical dramas on television have been around pretty much since the advent of the picture tube. There was “Dr. Kildare” in the 60’s. “Marcus Welby, MD” in the 70’s, “St. Elsewhere” was in the 80’s… But starting in the 90’s there was one team of diligent doctors that stitched their way to critical acclaim and 23 emmy awards. It also propelled its actors to true stardom. There was even a future Batman hidden in the scrubs.
