I'm always playing a role, whether it's the role of the mayor, the role of a news anchor, or a role of a crazy talk-show host. But there was a specific function. 'On Dancing With The Stars', I had nothing to do but be me, schlepping around the floor....
My humour comes from acknowledging different communities. That's what my fans are responding to - they know that I 'get it.' I understand them. I take the time to understand them. I get more complaints from people when I don't talk about them. I've h...
[Todd and Margo Chester, the Griswold's yuppie neighbors, appear] Todd: Hey Griswold. Where do you think you're gonna put a tree that big? Clark: Bend over and I'll show you. Todd: You've got a lot of nerve talking to me like that Griswold. Clark: I ...
The moment we care for anything deeply, the world - that is, all the other miscellaneous interests - becomes our enemy. Christians showed it when they talked of keeping one's self "unspotted from the world;" but lovers talk of it just as much when th...
Americans no longer talk to each other, they entertain each other. They do not exchange ideas, they exchange images. They do not argue with propositions; they argue with good looks, celebrities and comercials.
Long ago, I did a five-and-a-half-hour-a-day, six-day-a-week talk show for four years, early on, in Los Angeles - local show. And when you are on that many hours with no script, you know, you get very comfortable, maybe overly comfortable with that s...
I think the idea of having the show divided into two parts was that Tom Tom Club opened for Talking Heads in Europe, and it was the best we'd ever had as an opening act.
Writers of fiction should stick to writing, not pop up on panel shows or as a talking head.
I got to have a TV show that really was the talk of the nation for a while there. So I'm a very lucky guy.
If you are a musician and you don't show any interest on the business level then you are actually vulnerable and people will rip you off. They will sweet talk you into anything.
The desire of talking of ourselves, and showing those faults we do not mind having seen, makes up a good part of our sincerity.
Comedians who are 22 years old can certainly be funny and clever, and be capable of telling jokes - but are they talking about their favorite TV shows, or a particular brand of shampoo?
It's not listed in the Bible, but my spiritual gift, my specific calling from God, is to be a television talk-show host.
Still when I go on talk shows, I worry that I have to live up to a comedic persona.
I just remember the early days of Tenacious D. There was no talk or thought about doing a TV show or a movie.
I'm so used to talk-show hosts just giving you a sound bite and not really being interested.
I think that in the end, a talk show is a very different animal.
Network television is all talk. I think there should be visuals on a show, some sense of mystery to it, connections that don't add up.
I love talk shows and hosting. I would want to do something like that. I'm not sure I would want to be a reality star continuously.
Video artists being at the low end of the totem pole economically, one of the ways we survive is to go around showing work and giving these talks.
Fans are my favorite thing in the world. I've never been the type of artist who has that line drawn between their friends and their fans. The line's always been really blurred for me. I'll hang out with them after the show. I'll hang out with them be...
