His credits since have included American Dad!, The New Adventures of Old Christine, the Peabody-winning Men of a Certain Age, and executive producing and directing ABC's The Goldbergs. ## Follow Lew Schneider Put Lew Schneider in your D.O.C., your twelve, and the free D.O.C. letter brings their new dates, episodes and videos each week.
