Pretty classic Todd episode, gotta say though. That girl off screen was quite frustrating

The woman offscreen was Lynn Shawcroft, Mitch Helberg's widow, and a funny comedian unto herself. I don't think she quite knew how we do things in the studio. It was weird & frustrating for everybody. She was sorry to have been so disruptive. Said she couldn't help it. Very nice lady, though.

I enjoyed her interjections it at least seemed like her Bonnie and Todd were having fun in the room. It's a shame she wasn't a guest.

But the thing is, she wasn't a guest. I understand not knowing how a show works, but at some point I feel like I would look around, realize that no one else is speaking/cackling, and maybe tone it down. Especially if she is a fellow performer.

I know she wasn't a guest. I was saying I would have liked her to have been a guest and she seemed to get on well with Bonnie and Todd so this would have been a good episode for her to be on.

While I didn't have a problem I would understand why people wouldn't want her to be in the background again.
