Lena Waithe and Rishi Rajani join Kyle Meredith to discuss the new Emmy-nominated documentary Being Mary Tyler Moore, out now on Max.
The producers talk about presenting an in-depth look at Moore’s life, as well as how the icon helped change the conversation surrounding women in America during her time. They also look at her private battles outside of fame and how she dealt with being cast as the reluctant hero of a movement.
Waithe — who has also written for and starred in Master of None, Ready Player One, and The Chi — recalls falling in love with The Dick Van Dyke Show via Nickelodeon’s Nick at Nite and explains how Julia Louis-Dreyfus career ascension parallels Moore’s. Meanwhile, Rajani gives update on the duo’s next documentary, which chronicles Timbaland and Swizz Beatz’s Verzuz series.
