Pearl - Starring Rhea Perlman, Malcolm McDowell, Carol Kane and Lucy Liu

Pearl WAS a show. This story of a middle-aged loading dock
manager (Perlman) who finally gets to go to university may have
only lasted one season, but it certainly had an all star cast!
She spars with her pompous and elitist professor Stephen Pynchon
(McDowell) because he doesn’t believe a working class student
like Pearl has any place in an institution of higher learning.
Brynn, Aaron & Barry sign up for this course to learn why
this show didn’t earn a passing grade.
