I had no television when I was little, just a stack of old, beat-up comics from the 1950s and 1960s.
I have a TV Soap Boomerang award, and I always start my year with the Australian Open tennis! Tennis, soccer, you name it.
If I see a movie on TV that I'm in, I usually will watch it for that reason: It's like I'm watching another person.
I read that prior to the advent of color TV, most people dreamed in black and white.
Doing a TV show, you're on an assembly line and it's as cut and dry as that. There are some shows that are exceptions. There are producers that want really special things.
It's bizarre, that feeling as an actor, at being in the mecca of the film world and seeing billboards for a TV show that you're in pretty much everywhere.
Especially while television I think is going through some growing pains or is in need of - I think current comedy is a bit, uh, not happening, you know?
Reading the Gospels, without the personality of Jesus, is like watching television with the sound turned off.
I've been on the wrong end of violence, and I've done violence myself... I refuse to glorify violence in my movie and television roles.
Growing up where I did, the thought of working on a television show or in a movie... that existed on a parallel plane, you know?
We need to be celebrating those who serve us rather than mocking them for the purpose of getting on TV and selling some books.
My first crush was Barry Manilow. He performed on TV and I taped it. When no one was around I'd kiss the screen.
Life goes on pretty much the same way. I've been working on a couple of films on the side. You may see some more. You may even see another television show.
'Game of Thrones' is shot on a very similar kind of schedule to a TV show, but there's a lot more time and focus put into the script.
I don't watch TV, I don't spend time on the Internet, and I don't party much. I don't text very much, either.
I remember growing up with television, from the time it was just a test pattern, with maybe a little bit of programming once in a while.
It's the only time that I'm ever nervous on stage, is when we're doing live TV. Especially an awards show, because I know you can't fix it.
I feel like obviously the standard for what TV looks like changes all the time.
I forget sometimes that I'm in the HBO stable because I am such a fan of so much of their programming. Like, 'The Wire' is my favorite TV show of all time.
When I was in high school, The Dave Matthews Band was a local band, and that was the first time I was starting to connect with a live band that was something that wasn't on the radio or TV.
It's just hard not to listen to TV: it's spent so much more time raising us than parents have.
