    Tyler James Williams Thinks ‘Everybody Hates Chris’ Was Misinterpreted (Fresh Air+)

    Tyler James Williams currently appears as the no-nonsense but also sweet Gregory Eddie on “Abbott Elementary,” but he’s been acting since he was a kid—notably playing a young Chris Rock in the 2000s sitcom “Everybody Hates Chris.” Williams came on Fresh Air in 2024 to talk about why he thinks that show was misunderstood, how it shaped his thoughts on fame, and why he’s now chosen to be offline. | Listen to 40+ years of Fresh Air's archives at FreshAirArchive.org. | To access bonus episodes, sponsor-free listening and to support public radio, become a Fresh Air+ supporter at plus.npr.org/freshair. | Send in your Q&A questions for Terry and Tonya to freshairplus@npr.org

    Tyler James Williams • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #287

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with legendary actor who we've seen on-screen for almost all his life - it's  TYLER JAMES WILLIAMS! Just by way of speed intro, Tyler played a young Chris Rock in Everybody Hates Chris, which you might recall from a minute ago. But a more up to date credit would be the fabulous Abbott Elementary, which has just been picked up for a 4th season so here's to more Quinta and Tyler and the gang! Anyway - a delightful episode, with ups and downs like you wouldn't believe - the 'Sesame Street Peak', memoirs, fear as an indicator in life, couples being too sexy, dogs breaking the fourth wall in heaven (never typed those words in that order before), avoiding troublesome phases of a young actor's life, and a rugged near death period of his life where work nearly concluded his whole story... A brilliant ep. Enjoy! Video and extra audio available on Brett's Patreon!
