Anyone remember the TV series Thirtysomething? It ran from the late 80s through the early 90s.

One of the lead characters, Michael Steadman, was played by actor Ken Olin.

I like his tweets. Here's one:

1. Just too, too perfect. Good grief. I sometimes despair and then sometimes just shake my head. nt

14. I'd bet she has pierce ears and a tattoo or two.

Blinded by the issue they are told to hate.

2. Yes. For all the RW disparagement of "Hollywood" there are many in the "biz" who are well educated,

well-informed, and intelligent--as one might expect. Ken is certainly one of them.

3. I was channel surfing the local channels...

The last channel is a religious channel and they were spouting out that Jesus hung around lepers and other sick people and he didn't need a mask. How can you argue with that solid piece of thinking?

8. if they follow Jesus so closely, maybe they should be crucified on a cross just like Jesus first

The cherry picking of things to follow is astonishing.

17. How do

they know. We’re they there🙄

4. If god wanted us to wear clothes

to cover our tits and balls, he would have made us that way!

[FakeNoose]

5. You got that right mom!

16. Whatever happened to fig leaves anyway?

6. I love Thirtysomething! I watched it when I was Twentysomething and I'd love to watch it again now

that I'm Fiftysomething. I've never seen it offered on any of the streaming channels. I follow Ken Olin on Twitter. I love his tweets and this was was spot on.

7. He also has something to do with This Is Us

I've been following him for a while now. He's great and is a major anti Trump tweeter.

9. I always watched Thirtysomething,

although I called it “Whiny, Bitchy Yuppies.”

10. I enjoyed Thirtysomething back in the day.

There was an effort to revive it just last year with the original cast as grandparents. It didn't get greenlighted. Maybe it was just as well.
First time I heard of Michael Feinstein was on Thirtysomething.

11. "First time I heard of Michael Feinstein was on Thirtysomething."

Me, too. I was instantly enchanted.

I was a loyal Thirtysomething watcher. I wished I could look like Mel Harris.

[LanternWaste]

15. I rewatched the series on DVD about two years ago.

As an older adult, the dialog seems even more gripping, more relevant and more well-written than it did when I was in my twenties watching it during its initial run.

And of course, there's always Miles Drentill... the man we all loved to hate!

[MissMillie]

12. I'm following him on Twitter too

and yeah, he makes a lot of sense. And I liked him very much on Thirtysomething.

[Grumpy Old Guy]

13. He produces and/or directs "This is Us."

He also had a major roll on "Hill Street Blues."

18. love his tweets

he is one of the good ones
