I have a good time watching Nick At Night with the old shows on there. I love to see I Love Lucy, although I've seen them many, many times. I think it's a security factor, it's like your blanket.

I never met the second happiest man, or the first happiest man, so I can't judge where I fall into that category.

If you get a show named after you, and then play another character, that's fine. But if you do a show that's an ensemble show like... MASH, then you're in trouble.

You accumulate a great deal of acquaintances and friendships over the years, and you can't always spend as much time as you would like.

They sometimes beat things into the ground. They don't know when to get out of a situation. They think it's going to be funny....the more you pound the nail into the ground the funnier it gets and that's not necessarily true.

If you want good sketches, go pick up Sid Caesar. The best of Your Show of Shows. That's the greatest sketch comedy you'll ever see on television.

Even in the days when they did Othello, you didn't necessarily have to be black to play Othello. You wore the makeup.
