Bio
Darren Garnick is a free-spirited writer, field producer, photographer, filmmaker and philosopher who occasionally breaks away from his iMac to stack firewood. He also especially enjoys making fun of Apple snobs, the kind who hang out at the “Genius Bar” on Saturday nights and make it a point to mention they are a “Mac Guy” in every conversation.
Although much of his youth was spent watching “Batman,” “Get Smart,” “Casper The Friendly Ghost” and “Creature Double Feature,” Darren’s current gigs as a parent, newspaper columnist and TV field producer ironically leave little time for TV.
He still gets emotional when he hears the theme songs to “Welcome Back Kotter,” “The Greatest American Hero (Believe It Or Not)” and “WKRP in Cincinnati.”
Darren’s favorite authors are Leon Uris, Carl Hiaasen, and Sylvester Stallone.

On the “welcome back kotter” note, if you want a retro 70’s WBK rocking chair, i have one for sale. It matches the couch in this picture: http://www.weyl.org/house/images/P1010148.jpg - and, yes, that is my house. Let me know if you want me to throw in some shag carpeting or beaded wall hangings.

Darren,
What were you writing when you sat in my sealed room during the first Iraqi war? Let me guess.
Dysfunctional families?
Home?
Can I say I knew you when, now that you’re so famous?
Good luck in all your exciting endeavors.
Warmly,
Judy Labensohn

So when are they FINALLY going to release WKRP on DVD … with ALL the ORIGINAL music that was used?
“As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.”
Doesn’t get much better than that.
Cheers!
