Wendi McLendon-Covey as Beverly Goldberg

It’s the best around. Nothing’s ever gonna keep The Goldbergs down! Not as long as Wendi McLendon-Covey is running amok in Bev Goldberg’s embellished sweaters and winged ‘dos, that’s for sure. The wrongfully Emmy-ignored actress and all-around delight sat down with us for a Celebrity Page chat about her most-Bev trait, the debut of the comedy’s oft-mentioned other Adam Goldberg (inspired by series creator Adam F. Goldberg’s Twitter beef with actor Adam Goldberg) and how the show’s annual movie spoof—airing Wednesday—uses The Karate Kid to show just how far Bev will go to protect her shmoopie.
