Evil Dead, The Conners And Roseanne, Laverne And Shirley
- Melissa is a dyed-in-the-wool aficionado of blue-collar comedies such as "Grace Under Fire," "Laverne and Shirley," and "My Name is Earl" She is such a devotee of "Laverne and Shirley" that she owns several pieces of memorabilia from the show, including one of Laverne's signature L-emblazoned sweaters and a chair from Cowboy Bills.
- She grew up watching "Roseanne," despite her love for the show and its spinoff, she thinks "The Conners" works a lot better without lead Roseanne Barr. She's also glad Darlene and David broke up and likes Darlene's relationship with Ben more.
- Melissa conducted an interview for Newsweek with Christopher Schonberger and Sean Evans, the founders of "Hot Ones" and "First We Feast." The interview was retweeted through their official social media.
