I feel like my life has always been the 'Hey Look at Me Show.' I'm not apologetic about that.

The public's perception of your show is what it is, and you don't get to complain how people perceive your show or talk about it.

I say what's in my head, and I'm on honest ground. That is worth so much, and I think it does make my job, as a writer, easier. It makes it possible for me to give people stuff that they like.

I expect the audience to assume TV is stupid. I accept that it's my job to overcome it.

There's the same percentage of genius happening in both genders, but there's less women writing scripts and out there looking for the job.

If somebody's cat happens to turn on the TV, my numbers can double. It's almost unrelated to what's really happening.

With an animated show you can make a banana purple. You can put three hats on a cowboy. That would require several days of stitching, in live-action, that you wouldn't be able to afford. I mean, you can just do tons and tons and tons.
