I was a complete unknown when I did 'Karate Kid.' I'd just done a pilot for a TV show called 'Call to Glory.' And I sat down with John Avildsen and brought still pictures from the show. I brought pictures! At that point, I would've been happy to be i...
'Turtles' was by far my favourite TV show when I was growing up. It would be the show that I would wanna watch more than anything. We'd record it on the big VHS tapes, and I'd watch it before school, after school, on the weekend, wear the costume, ha...
There are things I'm doing with 'The After' that would've never flown on 'The X-Files' and on network television, so it's more permissive. That's not to say that you want to abuse that. I think that a show like 'The X-Files' actually worked better as...
As a parent with young children, I would always find little things that bothered me when I was reading bedtime stories or watching shows or listening to children's music. I couldn't find any stories, games or television shows that were fun and exciti...
I've always liked TV shows that have slightly unlikable leads, where you root for them in spite of a lot of things. I know it's not common with shows with young people; they have to be so likable. But, I mean, teenagers just generally aren't very lik...
I should go so far as to say that embedded in the surrealistic frame of a television news show is a theory of anticommunication, featuring a type of discourse that abandons logic, reason, sequence and rules of contradiction. In aesthetics, I believe ...
The best part about stand-up is that you control everything. Period. When you work in movies, or on TV shows, there are 50 other people involved.
I feel that, at this point in my career, I don't want to do another television show. I don't want to do a film.
Why are we casting all these stand-up comedians to do 'Breaking Bad,' one of the most dramatic TV shows ever?
Reality shows are all the rage on TV at the moment, but that's not reality, it's just another aesthetic form of fiction.
Normally, if you do a television show, it's 25 episodes. Your year is kind of shot, you know what I mean?
My favorite TV show ever is 'Boy Meets World,' and my favorite movie is 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off.'
I think my biggest problem was, as a celebrity on a TV show, you get an inflated ego and you think you're the center of the universe.
I have a special ability to spot TV shows that don't go past two seasons; that's my gift.
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.
By all standards, except for 'Star Trek' standards, 98 episodes of any television show is a wildly successful run.
People on both sides of any conflict believe they are right, whether it's on a TV show or in the real world.
Is it just me or is this like a bad TV sci-fi show?
I love 'Top Chef.' I think it rewrote the book on how food shows are presented on TV.
I'm just kind of taking a break now and enjoying the freedom of making my own choices. When you're on a television show for six years, they run your schedule.
I don't watch that much TV. I think I should probably watch a little bit more, but I love the ABC Family shows.
