Table for Two

From "Blue Velvet" and "Death Becomes Her" to this year’s "Conclave," choosing a favorite Isabella Rossellini film is no easy task. But which film does she love most? Find out on this week’s bonus episode of "Table for Two," in which the actress joins host Bruce Bozzi to discuss her go-to wine, her preferred Italian curse word, and the best advice she’s ever received.

Growing up in Raleigh, North Carolina, Amy Sedaris watched a lot of television. She counts "Alvin and the Chipmunks" and "Second City Television" as major influences on her desire to perform, whether that meant pranking family members or acting in the plays written by her older brother, the humorist David Sedaris. Siblings aside, she was also surrounded by several other notable comedians, including Stephen Colbert and Paul Dinello, whom she met in her twenties at Chicago's Second City comedy troupe. That trio would go on to create "Strangers with Candy" in 1999, a sitcom underpinned by the same surreal yet comic tone that would come to define Sedaris’s later roles on shows like "BoJack Horseman," "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," and her own series, "At Home with Amy Sedaris." On this week’s episode of "Table for Two," the actress and writer joins host Bruce Bozzi to discuss her years working as a waitress, why she prefers guest-starring over leading roles, and her recent addiction to BonBon candy.

Anyone who has watched At Home with Amy Sedaris knows that the show's star has distinct preferences when it comes to the kitchen. But what is her favorite comfort food? On this week’s bonus episode of Table for Two, the comedian and actress joins host Bruce Bozzi to discuss her pet peeves, the most influential person in her life (hint: he’s a relative), and the first word that comes to mind when she hears “Andy Cohen.”

During his youth in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Jesse Tyler Ferguson quickly discovered his affinity for the performing arts. Upon joining a local theater group, he found the stage to be a place where he could express himself fully. And when an opportunity arose to travel to New York City as a teenager, Ferguson set his sights firmly on Broadway. His career took off—early Broadway roles included in On the Town and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee—meaning that Ferguson had little reason to give much thought to television. And yet, the script for a new sitcom, called Modern Family, resonated deeply with him—and, as it turned out, with millions of fans. On this week’s episode of Table for Two, the actor joins host Bruce Bozzi to discuss his early years on the theater circuit, the moment he recognized his on-screen chemistry with Eric Stonestreet, and the philosophy behind his own restaurant-oriented podcast, Dinner’s On Me. 

Given his experience as the host of his own podcast, Dinner’s on Me, it’s no surprise that Jesse Tyler Ferguson is an expert at answering questions in a restaurant setting. On this week’s bonus episode of Table for Two, the actor joins host Bruce Bozzi and discusses whether he prefers performing on Broadway or television, his favorite Modern Family episode, and the one word he’d use to describe Sofía Vergara.
