Flashdance leading man Michael Nouri sits down with Steve Kmetko for a wide-ranging, funny, and unexpectedly emotional conversation about his decades in Hollywood — from Goodbye, Columbus and Flashdance to Broadway, Victor/Victoria, Yellowstone, and beyond. Michael looks back on the night the acting bug bit him in a high school Gilbert & Sullivan production, his early stage days with legends like Julie Harris, and bombing his very first movie line opposite Ali MacGraw in Goodbye, Columbus. He talks about trying to dodge the Vietnam draft, enlisting, and then being honorably discharged because the Army literally couldn’t find boots big enough for his size-16 feet. Of course, he dives into Flashdance: the terrible reviews, the electric audience reaction, that rare standing ovation in Westwood, working with director Adrian Lyne, producers Simpson & Bruckheimer, and co-star Jennifer Beals (plus their canine scene partner, Grunt). He explains how the massive success of the film didn’t translate into the career momentum he’d hoped for, the movie with William Friedkin that fell apart, and how he ended up in Bay City Blues alongside a then-unknown Sharon Stone instead. Michael also shares powerful stories from touring South Pacific right after 9/11 — including emotional nightly renditions of “God Bless America” with audiences arm-in-arm — and the chance encounter with Blake Edwards that led to him starring opposite Julie Andrews in Victor/Victoria, complete with a custom song by Henry Mancini. He reflects on aging in Hollywood, evolving from leading man to dads, granddads, and senators, still auditioning for filmmakers like Bradley Cooper, and staying grateful that the phone keeps ringing. Along the way, he remembers working with Sean Connery, F. Murray Abraham, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, Kelly Reilly, and even Anna Nicole Smith, plus the life lesson he learned the hard way trying to approach Luciano Pavarotti backstage. He also opens up about political anxiety, the emotional toll of the news cycle, the importance of community, and why he now protects his peace by switching from cable news to TCM. And yes, we meet Charlie, his “heart on four legs,” and hear how daily meditation keeps him grounded after more than five decades in the business. If you love Flashdance, classic Hollywood stories, Broadway memories, and honest talk about surviving and adapting in this business, this episode is a gem.

n this encore episode of Still Here Hollywood, Steve Kmetko sits down with actor Natasha Henstridge, who rocketed to fame as the lethal alien Sil in Species, and has been navigating the highs and lows of Hollywood ever since. Natasha opens up about being 19 years old, seeing herself 30 feet tall on a screen for the first time, walking out of the Species screening saying she “hated” the movie, and why she’s now deeply proud of it and the way it changed her life and career. She talks honestly about aging in the business, body image, and what it’s like to still be recognized for a role she did nearly 30 years ago — including by 20-year-olds who weren’t even born when the film came out. She also reflects on working with Bruce Willis on The Whole Nine Yards, shares emotional memories of Matthew Perry, and talks candidly about her experience with Harvey Weinstein, the MeToo movement, and the complicated decision to speak out — and then try to move on. From Canadian small-town winters to Cannes red carpets, big Hollywood breaks to indie films and producing her own Christmas movie, Natasha is funny, vulnerable, and unfiltered. Along the way, she and Steve dive into: The overwhelming pressure of overnight fame after Species Why she initially hated seeing herself on screen How Species still gets her hired around the world decades later Working with Bruce Willis and watching his family rally around him Her memories of Matthew Perry — the humor, the struggle, and the heartbreak Her experience with Harvey Weinstein and how MeToo “moved the needle” Parenting two sons with ADHD/dyslexia and why motherhood is the hardest job she’s ever had Growing up in freezing northern Alberta, loving winter, and escaping to LA Body image, beauty standards, social media, and what she tells young women now Producing her own projects and saying yes to work all over the world If Species, late-90s/early-2000s Hollywood, or the MeToo era are part of your movie memory bank, this one hits on all fronts — nostalgia, honesty, and a woman who’s very much… still here. 🔔 Subscribe for more conversations with the icons, survivors, and scene-stealers of Hollywood. 👍 Like, comment, and tell us your favorite Natasha Henstridge role.

Actor and director Chad Lowe sits down with Steve for one of the most deeply honest, funny, and unexpectedly emotional conversations we’ve had on Still Here Hollywood. From growing up in the shadow of a wildly famous big brother to discovering his own path through acting, sobriety, fatherhood, and directing, Chad tells the story of a life shaped by love, rivalry, reinvention — and a few surreal Hollywood moments. He opens up about the early days when teenage girls hung posters of Rob but not him… auditioning for roles that went on to define a generation (On Golden Pond, Running on Empty, Goonies, Say Anything)… and the moment River Phoenix’s performance inspired him to become a better actor. Chad shares how Martin Sheen changed the course of his life on one unforgettable car ride, how he overcame paralyzing audition anxiety, and why Life Goes On became the most meaningful work of his career. For the first time, Chad also walks us through the real story behind Hilary Swank’s Oscar speech, how he actually felt in the car afterward, why he cried at the ceremony, and how the two of them found peace and perspective years later. We cover the state of Hollywood post-strikes, directing 911: Lone Star alongside Rob, taking his daughters to Taylor Swift (and surviving the ticket wars), his years of sobriety, what scares him most as a “girl dad,” and how a tuna melt changed his life at Elizabeth Taylor’s house. It's heartfelt, self-deprecating, and full of moments that remind you why Chad Lowe has quietly built one of the most beloved, complicated, fascinating careers in the business. A must-watch episode for anyone who knows the highs and lows of following your own path — even when the world thinks it already knows who you are.

Television icon Morgan Fairchild sits down with Steve Kmetko for an unusually intimate, funny, and deeply revealing conversation. From her Texas childhood and early dreams of becoming a doctor or paleontologist to breaking into New York’s brutal casting world, Morgan shares the hustle, heartbreak, glamor, and grit behind her decades-long career. She opens up about Dallas, Falcon Crest, Search for Tomorrow, Initiation of Sarah, Mork & Mindy, Robin Williams, Vincent Price, Roddy McDowall, and the performers who shaped her. Morgan also dives into surviving Hollywood typecasting, being underestimated for her beauty, crafting her signature look, and the real story behind her “schemer” era. In one of the most emotional parts of the interview, Morgan reflects on her AIDS advocacy, her years working with Dr. Fauci, educating the public when few dared to, and the work that cost her roles — but defined her purpose. She also discusses the loss of Matthew Perry, reveals the tabloid stories that stunned her, and shares how she’s stayed relevant across generations. Plus: the Two Bitches from Texas podcast, her love of paleontology, her Halloween obsession, wild Hollywood stories, taking risks, breaking stigmas, and the advice she’d whisper to her 20-year-old self. If you grew up watching her — or if you only know her as “Matthew Perry’s mom on Friends” — this conversation will surprise you. Morgan Fairchild is funny, brilliant, reflective, and refreshingly real. 👉 Subscribe for more iconic conversations with the stars we miss and the legends still making history.

In this candid conversation on Still Here Hollywood, Gregory tells Steve Kmetko about growing up on Catalina Island, the day a Doris Day F-bomb on his dad’s boat made him realize movies weren’t “magic” — just craft — and how that moment set his career in motion.

Medical dramas on television have been around pretty much since the advent of the picture tube. There was “Dr. Kildare” in the 60’s. “Marcus Welby, MD” in the 70’s, “St. Elsewhere” was in the 80’s… But starting in the 90’s there was one team of diligent doctors that stitched their way to critical acclaim and 23 emmy awards. It also propelled its actors to true stardom. There was even a future Batman hidden in the scrubs. This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko.

But, there’s one actor who reached overnight fame in the 1980’s for his uniquely hilarious accent that left the movie-going world scratching their heads.

This is STILL HERE HOLLYWOOD, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, Natasha Henstridge of “Species”. In Hollywood, aliens coming to earth has been a “go to” theme for screenwriters for decades. And of course, not all of the “creatures from the beyond” are as adorable and gentle as “ET”. Some are here to wreak havoc among the human race… In 1995, one classic alien movie brought a horrible creature to earth, perfectly packaged as one of the most beautiful women to ever walk our planet.

Career success in Hollywood is often measured in unusual ways... Some have Oscars and Emmys to show for their work. And some who have had career longevity, have their arms. Specifically when their credits are as long as their arm. Another small hint of making it in Hollywood is if you casually used to hang out with Marlon Brando… This is Still Here Hollywood. I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, and man with credits that are several arms long, best known for his role on the groundbreaking St. Elsewhere, Ed Begley, Junior.

This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me with today’s guest, director, and Emmy winning actor, Chad Lowe. Actors in Hollywood often wear different hats throughout their career. Most are content performing the lines and roles written for them. Others like to branch out and flex as many creative muscles as they can, all while lending support to who might be their famous siblings and spouses. And sometimes people in Hollywood don’t necessarily get the “thanks” the observers think they might deserve.

If you're one to pay attention to Hollywood tabloids you'd know that it's fairly rare to a child actor to keep their career thriving deep into adulthood. One versitile star, who was in his first hit film at 11 years old, has thrived for decades as an actor and has pivoted into the world of Talk and Game Show hosting. But despite the many roles and successes he has raked up in his 40 year career, his most important role is being a dad to daughters. This is Still Here Hollywood, I'm Steve Kmetko.

This is Still Here Hollywood, I’m Steve Kmetko. Join me and today’s guest from Frasier, Peri Gilpin. Strong, independent, women in TV comedies have always been a hallmark of the genre.
