I feel like sometimes people on television shows can start taking things for granted, or they don't want to be here or something like that.
I have been very fortunate, working a lot in TV, and have been able to dip into the film world a little bit here and there.
The idea of stardom was difficult to grasp. It was like being schizophrenic; there was her, the woman on television, and the real me.
Kids are much more intuitive these days. Not that I'm crazy about what's on TV, but they know so much these days.
The one function that TV news performs very well is that when there is no news we give it to you with the same emphasis as if it were.
I did a lot of ridiculous television. Between 1980 and '85 I had no confidence, so I did everything I was told to do.
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.
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?
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 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.
