Rusty Gatenby
I was arguing that "Breaking Bad" was superior to "Modern Family" during a segment Tuesday on "Twin Cities Live," when we were suddenly interrupted via Skype by a surprise guest: Steven Levitan -- the co-creator of "Modern Family." Turns out Levitan is close friends with fellow panelist and KSTP personality Rusty Gatenby. They were roommates at the University of Wisconsin and have been in each other's weddings.
I quickly tried to recover, lauding Levitan with praise for maintaining such high quality in season three, but I couldn't escape at least one jab. Before the segment was over, I asked Levitan to tell us an embarassing story about Gatenby from his college days.
"That will be answered on 'Breaking Bad,'" Levitan said.
