I play basketball on Sundays and I'm a very spiritual guy; I read a lot of Eastern philosophy and I meditate.

The comic strip is what I looked at, and it's another reason I did it. The comic strip, where animals would comment on human behaviour, interested me.

I am pretty tenacious as a perfectionist in terms of getting something right.

I don't know why men are so fascinated with television and I think it has something to do with - if I may judge from my own father, who used to sit and stare at the TV while my mother was speaking to him - I think that's a man's way of tuning out.

Carol Burnett was particularly funny. She swore for the first time on television on Larry Sanders.

But I really like hosting, I think it's a strength of mine. It allows me to improvise, and I love the spontaneity of that, and I think I'm funny behind the desk when interviewing someone.

After making love I said to my girl, "Was it good for you too?" And she said, "I don't think this was good for anybody."
