I’m revisiting two dinners with people I absolutely adore who have been mainstays on network television for roughly a decade: Jim Parsons of “The Big Bang Theory” and Tracee Ellis Ross of “Black-ish.”

First up… star of stage and screen Jim Parsons joins me at Don Angie in NYC's West Village. Over some gorgeous lasagna, we discuss queer visibility in television and film, "The Big Bang Theory" pilot that never was and why "Spoiler Alert" is such a special film.

Also… actor and fashion icon Tracee Ellis Ross chats with me over tacos and nachos at The Roof, a restaurant at the top of The West Hollywood EDITION. We dish about her final days of "Black-ish," her mother’s iconic 75th birthday, and who makes her starstruck.

A Sony Music Entertainment & A Kid Named Beckett production.
