    Erika Alexander looks back at Living Single and another 1990s twenty-something sitcom, Friends. The two shows have a curious relationship, which often goes under-recognized. In a clip from Part 2 of her Questlove Supreme interview, Erika explains how Living Single's set conditions were much different from those of other shows and details why. Alexander also recalls a walk-off in protest of how the hit FOX sitcom was being treated. For more information on Erika Alexander's work and causes, visit her site: erikaalexander.com/

    Living Single is a really good show, and learning what the actors went through makes it even better. ❤

    that was an interesting question. i actually forgot about the Moonlight Friends flip. I don't think at the time I registered it as an homage to Living Single. I need to go back and watch now

    The cast of Star Trek the Next Generation went through the same things too.During their first season on the paramount back lot they had full metal trailers ( like some thing from the 50/60s ) without heating or air conditioning.And no craft services either,they had to raid food from other productions craft services. Eventually things got better for them through protests and when the ratings started going through the roof.

    Didn't have air conditioning?! From 1993 thru 1997? Utterly ridiculous.

    I was a big Living Single fan. I watched a episode of Friends to see what all the fuss was about. No fuss. No where close to being as funny as Living Single.

    Best interview, but more Erika speaking, too slow on leading up to the questions.
