I did theatre all my life and then went into the film world. I then kind of segued into TV land, which is a different experience.
Woe to us if we get our satisfaction from the food in the kitchen and the TV in the den and the sex in the bedroom with an occasional tribute to the cement blocks in the basement!
It's the boring things that mean a lot to me. I enjoy taking my sisters to eat. Or sitting watching TV with my family.
The Wilmington, Delaware, television station that bills itself as The Family Minded Station is Channel 69.
When I was a newspaper reporter, and later a television writer, I really felt my co-workers became a second family.
'Doctor Who' began as family television: a show that kids and their parents and grandparents can all watch, maybe even together, on the sofa.
I sometimes found myself more comfortable around my TV family than I did with my own parents and sister.
I come from an everyday middle class family in India. The film industry reached us only through our television sets and cinema halls.
In this business, there is an insane amount of pressure, spoken and unspoken, to be thin. If you look at some of the television shows, eating disorders become like a competitive thing.
In day-to-day commerce, television is not so much interested in the business of communications as in the business of delivering audiences to advertisers. People are the merchandise, not the shows. The shows are merely the bait.
I think a lot of people just assumed I came to L.A. to do more television and get into show business.
This almost never happens, but what is really relaxing is just being in this house all by myself, sitting quietly and watching TV. But I basically never get that chance.
I think if you're too concerned with being cool or hip or liked, you can't really make good TV because sincerity and coolness are opposites.
The future of the television industry is changing at an unstoppable rate, and it is exciting to share my experience and thoughts on how this will change the value of content in the digital space.
I've never been on a TV show for more than a season and you have to continually keep it interesting and you have to keep it connected, even as you change.
I like to go out, but sometimes it's nice to stay cozy at home, watching movies or TV, especially early in the week.
If you ask me what I'd rather be doing, well, I'd rather be home in California, watching TV, polishing my tools and working around the ranch.
Television, they say, will permit a person to be entertained at home, without the effort of going to a picture house, without the trouble of booking seats, without the presence of other people.
I'm purely most happy on a film or television set. That's where I feel I am home.
Let's be honest: we all watch the show at home and play 'armchair' 'Survivor,' inserting our opinions, comments and yelling at the TV screen.
The perfect date for me would be staying at home, making a big picnic in bed, eating Wotsits and cookies while watching cable TV.
