Today we're talking about a good day. It's episode 17 from season 6.

It was written by Carol Flint. It was directed by Richard Schiff.

And at first aired on March 2nd 2005, that's a really easy month to pronounce.

March.

Coming up later in this episode, we're going to be joined once again by Richard Schiff,

a continuation from our conversation with him last episode to tell us about his experience

directing this one.

Double Dose, Schiff Schiff, Pizza Pizza, Humbert Humbert,
