‘The Mortified Sessions’: Nick Offerman And Wife Megan Mullally Talk Sex Education

Laughter is one of the most important elements of any good relationship, so it’s no wonder Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman are still happily wed. The couple sat down on “The Mortified Sessions” (Mon., 8PM ET on Sundance) to talk about their lives and comedy and the fun they have being able to work together on “Parks & Recreation.”

On the topic of sexual education, Mullally seemed a bit surprised when Offerman started talking about his sex ed in a parochial school. “She would bring porn magazines,” Offerman said of the nun who taught this eighth grade class.

“What?” Mullally laughed at hearing this strange detail. When Offerman continued, particularly talking about expanding his sexual education himself as he came into puberty more, Mullally finally cut him off. “That’s probably enough,” she said.

“I got a great education,” Offerman said in summation.

Awkward Childhood Photos, Profane Diary Entries And Embarrassing Poetry Take Center Stage In Sundance Channel’s ‘The Mortified Sessions’ As Celebrities Share Their Personal Artifacts

Facebook and Twitter have made keeping your past in the past a thing of the past. Keeping secrets has truly become a lost art, so one might ask why the display of a celebrity’s diary entry or unsent love letter can carry so much weight? Sundance Channel’s new interview series, “The Mortified Sessions,” premiering Monday, December 5th at 8:00pm ET/PT, provides a fun look at these artifacts and demonstrates that our adult personality began taking shape in our early years – and that even the coolest celebrity was once a geeky adolescent. The series offers a first person account of these life-changing moments from the past and showcases a new and irreverent side to some of Hollywood’s favorite personalities.

“The Mortified Sessions” provides a forum for stars including Ed Helms, Jennifer Grey, Eric Stonestreet, Mo’Nique, Cheryl Hines, and husband and wife team Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman, among others, to enjoy a new platform for candidness. Sharing the sometimes mortifying, sometimes side-splitting revelations about themselves helps to remind us what we all have in common – a shoebox full of memories and laughter which longs to be taken down from the top shelf of the closet.

Sarah Barnett, GM of Sundance Channel, said: “I’m thrilled to add “The Mortified Sessions” to Sundance Channel’s slate of provocative series. This unique style of journalism houses an uncanny ability to draw out the most fascinating and never-before heard details from the subjects, and creates a series that is a complete joy to watch.”

The questions surrounding the items in this personal manifesto lead to the obvious and sometimes not so obvious questions — were you popular, were you the class clown, were you considered the most likely or least likely to succeed, was there a moment in your childhood that you knew you were destined for the entertainment industry, and so on.

Each thirty-minute episode of the ten installments pushes the laws of convention, re-vamping the art of the interview. Viewers join host David Nadelberg as he sits with “Saturday Night Live’s” Will Forte on the stage of the iconic Groundlings Theatre to peruse his childhood mementos which shed light on the roots of his offbeat sensibility and humor; we see that the innate entrepreneurial skill of TOMS philanthropist Blake Mycoskie started in childhood and in another segment married actor couple Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally see each other’s childhood memorabilia for the first time. Nadelberg also visits Golden Globe®-nominated “Dirty Dancing” actress Jennifer Grey who talks about the pressures of growing up in a family of larger than life entertainers, and how it shaped her future.

“The Mortified Sessions” is inspired by host David Nadelberg’s headline-making storytelling project and book series “Mortified.” The franchise was birthed in the late ‘90s when Nadelberg stumbled upon an Awkward unsent love letter, which motivated him to go public with his personal artifact, in hopes of taking the lid off of our cultural shoebox and sharing our universal inner geek. The “Mortified” stage show has been hailed by Newsweek as a “cultural phenomenon,” and host Nadelberg extends that concept to the television show where he act as part provocateur/part therapist in an effort to get to all of the fun details. Whether he’s pulling out a journal entry or a hilarious childhood photo, his goal is to have everyone feel comfortable about exposing their most pivotal moments, re-igniting our collective sense of self-loathing and humor — all while creating an insightful and engrossing narrative about who they are today.

“The Mortified Sessions” is produced by RelativityREAL for Sundance Channel. Executive Producers are David Nadelberg and Neil Katcher, Tom Forman and Robert Lifton for RelativityREAL and Marco Bresaz for Sundance Channel.

Megan Mullally Rehabilitates Aubrey Plaza, Casey Wilson in Funny or Die’s ‘Home For Actresses’

In a new short for the website, Mullally schools stars from “Parks and Rec,” “Happy Endings,” “The Office” and “How to Make it in America” on how to be more alternative.

Megan Mullally takes in the role of a hostile, earthy den mother in a new Funny or Die clip. Peggy Dvorak’s Home for Actresses finds the new Breaking In star schooling some famous ladies on how to be less of a Hollywood cliche.
Unwillingly signing up for her treatment are Lake Bell, Aubrey Plaza, Lizzy Caplan, Michaela Watkins, Ellie Kemper and Mullally’s on-screen Happy Endings daughter, Casey Wilson
“Actresses who want to be cooler come to me,” says Dvorak, from underneath her unkempt grey wig. “I lift them from their bleak, orange-skinned Tory Burch wearing existences.”
The biggest infractions at her “in-patient” program include dressing like a talking baby, eating muffins, singing Kesha in the shower and trying to escape.
