Jim and Jeannie Gaffigan

Jim and Jeannie Gaffigan have survived and thrived in ways they couldn't have imagined when they pulled the plug on their TV Land series in the summer of 2016. Within months, Jeannie was diagnosed with a life-threatening brain tumor, and the couple, who have five young children, wondered what would happen next. Jeannie writes about all of that in her new book, "When Life Gives You Pears: The Healing Power of Family, Faith, and Funny People." Jim, meanwhile, was nominated for Grammy Awards in both 2018 and 2019. And in August 2019, Gaffigan became the first stand-up comedian to launch a special with Amazon Prime Video as an Amazon Original with "Quality Time." Jim and Jeannie gave me some quality time in their New York City apartment to talk about everything they've been through together, so let's get to it!
