You might be the leader of the team, but without the rest of the team, you're not doing anything. I think that's the way I look at my job as the lead of a TV show.
So many people treat you like you're a kid so you might as well act like one and throw your television out of the hotel window.
Television news is like a lightning flash. It makes a loud noise, lights up everything around it, leaves everything else in darkness and then is suddenly gone.
There are days when any electrical appliance in the house, including the vacuum cleaner, seems to offer more entertainment possibilities than the television set.
I have done film, television and theatre - all at a pretty substantial level - I don't think it's possible for American actors to do that.
You know, as I do, actors who, having become worldwide celebrities thanks to a TV series, complain of their lot and declare themselves ready to drop it all.
I'm not a reality TV star. I pride myself on witnessing, watching people, studying people, and being able to recreate that and create a human being.
I don't think a lot of people realize the influence TV has on our kids. Kids take a lot of their cues from it in their dress and their conduct.
I think I might want to get into development, as in developing my own sort of piece, whether it be for the stage or the big screen or for television.
Celebrity has lost its value - all you have to do is go on a reality TV show for six weeks and everybody knows your name.
That's the challenging thing with TV; it's not the action scenes per se, and it's not the location scenes and the heavy dialog scenes, but the fact that there is just no let-up; there is no break.
I don't want to sound too bleeding heart, because I know how lucky I've been, but I never knew how hard it was to be the lead in a television show.
Get in your kitchens, buy unprocessed foods, turn off the TV, and prepare your own foods. This is liberating.
Television news is now entertainment, and the stories are being written by the people that have a special interest in them.
I always wanted to be a full-time musician. Every television job I had was a means to buy a grand piano, or to put in a recording studio, or something like that.
I'd like to do a television show that is encouraging, useful, and clean, and I'd like to go up against Entertainment Tonight and beat it.
I'd like to scale back the television. I'm constantly told that I'm over-exposed, and I don't want to end up like Carol Vorderman.
Well, I loved variety in television, I loved sketch comedy. At 'Saturday Night Live,' I stayed almost seven years.
Commercials are not the only exposure that obesity gets on TV. It is by no means a rarity on the wonderful Judge Judy's show when both plaintiff and accused all but literally fill the screen.
For TV I don't think I could have gotten a better part than Uncle Junior because of the intimacy of the character based on David Chase's brilliant writing.
The most important advice you can give anyone about to appear on TV is incredibly prosaic - be yourself.
