Late last year, Megyn broke the news that she was making her acting debut in a new adult animated scripted series from The Daily Wire and Adam Carolla titled Mr. Birchum.
It’s based on the junior high school woodshop teacher Carolla popularized on radio and TV over the years and co-stars Roseanne Barr, Kyle Dunnigan, Brett Cooper, and more. Megyn voices the role of Wendi Birchum, the wife of Carolla’s Mr. Birchum, and mom to Dunnigan’s Eddie and Cooper’s Jeanie.
You can check out highlights from season one below:
After months of teases and trailers, the first episode of the show finally premiered in Los Angeles on Tuesday and Megyn made her way to the west coast to celebrate with the cast. Here, she shares some behind-the-scenes moments from the event.
Getting Ready
Megyn’s glam team puts the finishing touches on her premiere look.
The Wood Carpet
The Daily Wire rolled out the very apropos ‘wood carpet’ for the event.
Hand in Hand
Megyn’s husband Doug was her plus-one for the night.
All Together Now
She also posed with her co-stars.
And there was plenty of fun to be had.
Teacher’s Pets
Doug and Megyn had great seats to watch the first episode.
Talking Birchum
After the episode screening, the cast took the stage for a Q&A.
Roseanne Steals the Show
Barr was among those featured on the panel. The series marks her first return to the small screen since her eponymous sitcom was canceled by ABC in 2018 over her controversial tweet.
Megyn said the comedy legend was very much in her element. “I think it’s fair to say that when we went on stage after the premiere of the first episode, Roseanne stole the show,” she shared. “She was so funny… and she talked a bit about what it meant to her to come back.”
Friendly Faces
While at the festivities, Megyn also ran into some of her favorite voices at The Daily Wire, including Megyn Kelly Show regular Michael Knowles. The two snapped a selfie together.
With a full season of ‘acting’ under her belt, Megyn said she is ready for season two. If you want to watch Mr. Birchum, head to DailyWirePlus.com and enter the code Megyn25 to get 25 percent off a DailyWire+ annual membership.
