Leanne Morgan wants her fans to know that she hasn’t gone Hollywood. Sure, she just released her second Netflix stand-up special, “Unspeakable Things,” and she recently wrapped production on the second season of her Chuck Lorre-produced sitcom, “Leanne” — which, no big deal, shoots on Warner Bros.’ “lucky stage” that once housed “Friends” and “The Comeback.”

But she is still the same person she has always been — unapologetically herself. Always going on and lamenting about her family. Unafraid to call out her blemishes, which are really just her best qualities. When she’s out in Hollywood, she is still the consummate neighbor, like she was raised to be. She rents a house across the street from an LAPD captain, to whom she brought a roasted chicken after he had surgery.
