Monday on Lake Effect: Actor Vicki Lawrence, 'World of Warcraft' film, 'As Good As Gone'

Monday on Lake Effect:

Today on the show, we consider three icons. First, actress Vicki Lawrence looks back on why The Carol Burnett Show worked so well. Then, an iconic video game-turned-movie. With World of Warcraft hitting screens, our film critic looks at how an interactive medium translates to a passive one. And the cowboy at the center of Larry Watson’s latest novel As Good As Gone, doesn’t think of himself in iconic terms – a trait Watson remembers in his grandfather.

Guests:

  • Vicki Lawrence, actor and comedian
  • Dave Luhrssen, Lake Effect film contributor
  • Larry Watson, author, As Good As Gone
