Q: I loved the "Broadway's Best" series that ran on PBS in the fall of 2017 and included broadcasts of "She Loves Me," "Holiday Inn," and "Present Laughter." Are there plans for more broadcasts in 2018, or even for making it a returning series like "Great

If there are plans to continue the "Broadway's Best" series-within-a-series, no one's talking about them.

As it stands, the whole series consisted of just six specials, broadcasts of six hit Broadway musicals: "She Loves Me," Noel Coward's "Present Laughter," "In the Heights," "Indecent," Irving Berlin's "Holiday Inn" and "Falsettos." The first five on that list aired as part of PBS's ongoing "Great Performances" series, while the sixth aired as part of "Live From Lincoln Center."

Q: Did Robin Williams ever guest star in "The Simpsons"? He was the best voice actor and it seems like everyone who was anyone was in "The Simpsons."

It does seem a little surprising that Robin Williams, one of the most prominent comic actors of his generation, never appeared in the show that made use of just about every comic voice actor available (and quite a few non-comic actors to boot).

Of course, there's more than one way to appear in "The Simpsons." Though the show couldn't land him as a guest, the writers felt free to mention him in a couple of episodes.
