America's comedy clubs would probably be the last place you would expect to give
rise to one of the country's leading cultural analysts, but that is exactly what
happened in the case of Dr. Will Miller. You see, at the same time Will was
working his way up to headliner status as a comedian, he earned four graduate
degrees and was trained as a psychotherapist and ordained as a minister.
Dr. Will was Nick At Nite's resident Television Therapist and the host
of their "Why We Watch" segments for five years. His penetrating, yet
tongue-in-cheek insights into the hidden meanings of our favorite television
shows made him a popular fixture at the home of Classic TV. And, because Will
is a fully trained psychotherapist, what he told us about classic television may
have been humorous, but it was also true.
Dr. Miller's first book, "Why We Watch: Killing the Gilligan Within"
was published by Simon & Schuster in 1996. His newest book, "Refrigerator
Rights," is published by Penguin-Putnam and now available. He is in
great demand as a speaker to corporations and organizations across the United
States and Canada, addressing the effects of our culture on personal growth,
happiness and fulfillment. In fact, he was the highest rated speaker ever to
appear at IBM's prestigious Golden Circle event, and was the spokesman
for Microsoft's Carpoint.
