    Sep 8 2025
    In the second half of this unforgettable two-part conversation, host Tony Miros continues his deep dive with TV legend Greg Evigan. This time, Greg opens up about his experiences on the short-lived but beloved ’80s spy series “Masquerade,” where he co-starred with screen icon Rod Taylor (The Birds) and a young Kirstie Alley (Cheers). From star-studded Hollywood parties with Buddy Hackett, Cary Grant, and Shecky Greene to his fond memories of working alongside Kirstie, Greg shares stories that are equal parts nostalgic and laugh-out-loud entertaining.Greg also reflects on the role that changed everything for him—"My Two Dads.” He recalls how Chuck Lorre’s early scripts brought the show to life, what it was like working with Paul Reiser, Staci Keanan, and Florence Stanley, and how growing a beard helped him break free from being typecast after “B.J. and the Bear.” From stunts in the sci-fi thriller “DeepStar Six” to working with William Shatner on “TekWar,” Greg gives us plenty of behind-the-scenes gold—including a hilarious story about his first meeting with Shatner.The conversation doesn’t stop there. Greg opens up about playing villains in “Deadly Family Secrets” with Loni Anderson and on “General Hospital,” and about his darker turn as Dr. Dan Hathaway on “Melrose Place,” which led to one unforgettable on-set altercation. He also discusses working under Aaron Spelling on “Pacific Palisades” and why soap operas are some of the hardest jobs in show business.Finally, Greg shares the side of his career that has always been closest to his heart—music. From recording an album with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra to collaborating with his son Jason (a successful music producer who’s worked with Maroon 5 and Demi Lovato), Greg talks about songwriting, building his own studio during COVID, and the joy of creating music with family. At the end of the day, he reflects on what truly matters: his shows, his music, and above all, his family.Don’t miss this warm, funny, and inspiring episode packed with career highs, surprising confessions, & a heartfelt look at the legacy he hopes to leave behind.GREG EVIGANBorn in South Amboy, NJ, and raised in Sayreville, Greg discovered his passion for performance while in high school. Just one month after graduating in 1971, he landed a role in the Broadway production of Jesus Christ Superstar and later toured nationally in Grease, playing the lead. These early successes launched a career that has since spanned more than 100 film and television credits.Greg rose to fame in the late 1970s and 1980s with two iconic television roles: B.J. McKay in B.J. and the Bear and Joey Harris in My Two Dads. Both series remain fan favorites, and Greg also performed their memorable theme songs. He went on to star in the 1989 sci-fi thriller DeepStar Six and later joined William Shatner’s TekWar franchise, which ran as both TV movies and a syndicated series. Additional TV credits from the era include Melrose Place & Pacific Palisades.His other film work includes the Joey Travolta–directed drama Mel (1998), the psychological thriller Spirit (2001) opposite Elisabeth Moss, Arizona Summer (2004), the Western 6 Guns (2010), and the Hallmark holiday favorite Once Upon a Holiday (2015). In 2018, he returned to daytime television in a multi-episode guest arc on General Hospital as Jim Harvey.From Broadway to Hollywood to the recording studio, he has built a career defined by range, talent, and longevity, securing his place as a beloved and enduring figure in entertainment.Greg Evigan – Official Website - https://www.evigan.com/ The Official Hollywood Obsessed Website - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.hollywoodobsessedthepodcast.com/ ⁠⁠ ⁠ Follow the Official Hollywood Obsessed Facebook Page – ⁠⁠⁠HOLLYWOOD OBSESSED PODCAST⁠⁠⁠ Follow our Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/hollywoodobsessedpodcast/⁠ Titles VO Talent – Cam Frierson - ⁠⁠http://camfrierson.com/voice Music by⁠⁠ ⁠QubeSounds⁠⁠⁠ from ⁠⁠Pixabay⁠⁠⁠

    Sep 8 2025
    In the first half of a very special two-part conversation, host Tony Miros sits down with TV legend Greg Evigan—best known as B.J. McKay on the hit series “B.J. and the Bear” and Joey Harris on the beloved ’80s sitcom “My Two Dads.”Greg takes us back to his roots in New Jersey, where his love of music first began thanks to his piano-playing mom. From his very first organ to playing in bands, it wasn’t long before Greg’s passion for performing landed him on Broadway in “Jesus Christ Superstar”—and later stepping into the iconic role of Danny Zuko in “Grease.” He shares hilarious stories from his early stage days, including working with Marilu Henner in the Chicago tour of “Grease” and the moment he decided to trade Broadway for Hollywood dreams.You’ll hear how a heartbreaking audition loss turned into a life-changing meeting with Norman Lear, how Greg made his big-screen debut opposite Connie Stevens in “Scorchy” (complete with a funny “first death scene” story), and what it was like to guest star on classics like “The Six Million Dollar Man” and “Dallas.” Greg also reveals how his audition for “B.J. and the Bear” involved doing a screen test with a stuffed chimp—and how the real chimp he later worked with (who even attended his wedding!) had jealousy issues with his new bride.He opens up about the whirlwind fame that came with being on the cover of every magazine in the late ’70s, why he initially resisted sitcoms like “My Two Dads, “and how marriage and fatherhood helped him stay grounded through it all. Of course, we also talk music—Greg not only sang the theme songs for both “B.J. and the Bear” and “My Two Dads,” but he also wrote the latter. And yes, the iconic truck from “B.J. and the Bear” still tours the country today, thrilling fans old and new.This episode is packed with laughs, behind-the-scenes stories, and nostalgia. And trust me—you won’t want to miss Part Two of this fascinating conversation, where Greg dives even deeper into his incredible career and life beyond the spotlight.GREG EVIGAN Born in South Amboy, NJ, and raised in Sayreville, Greg Evigan discovered his passion for performance while in high school.
