Skip was our prop master for all nine years of the show, and he’s here to break down episode 308, “Heck’s Best Thing.” Plus, he shows us some fun Middle memorabilia he took from the set and explains how 3D printing has revolutionized the industry.

We've got the wonderful Rose Abdoo (Hacks, That's So Raven) with us today! She found her TiVo recoding of The Middle, watched intently, took notes, and is here to share them with us! But first, we dive into some comments, then we break down episode 916, "The Crying Game."

She talks about having to compromise with Eileen and DeAnn about bringing their very funny visions to life, the construction of the famous dice costume, and just how much work goes into a holiday episode.
