Podcast cover

How We Made Your Mother

In this episode of "How We Made Your Mother," Josh Radnor and Craig Thomas are joined by Ashley Williams, who played Victoria on the show. They reminisce about Williams' experience on the show, particularly focusing on the episodes "Drumroll, Please" and "Zip, Zip, Zip." Williams shares her initial anxieties about working in a multi-camera format, contrasting it with her experiences on "Good Morning Miami," and how the cast and crew of "How I Met Your Mother," especially Pam Fryman, created a supportive environment. The conversation explores the unique tone of the show, the intimacy achieved without a live audience, and the collaborative process of character development. They also discuss the challenges of guest-starring on a long-running show and the importance of creating a safe and fun atmosphere on set.
