While in LA last month I had the opportunity to meet and interview King Richard from Galavant played by Timothy Omundson, and the two executive producers Dan Fogelman and Kat Likkel. Dan and Kat are amazing producers and have done a great job with Galavant! If you haven’t seen it….be sure to watch it. It is like a full on musical and comedy show ever-single week!

Now let me tell you what made me the MOST excited to screen and interview these 3 people…Timothy Omundson! I have been a fan of his since he played Carolton Lassiter on Psych. To see him play King Richard is amazing because it really shows his range of acting skills. I learned some really fun facts about Season 2 while interviewing these great folks!
