Ill give you an idea of how Jewish Mel Brooks is: Thats a nose job.

I'm an actor who loves doing comedy.

[Ed Grimley] lives in a retirement home in New Jersey. It's called the Retirement Home in New Jersey for Characters Who Were Interesting in the '80s for About an Hour. He's there with the Whiners, Gumby and Jon Lovitz's 'That's the ticket' guy.

I have sometimes imagined my own death and brought myself to tears.

What's great about being a character actor is you know that you can survive forever. It's not about the gloss of your eyebrows.

I hate to lull the audience into letting them think that something is something. It's always fun to defy expectations.

I think I've been really lucky to keep my career so varied, and to be open. There's safety in repetition, but there's also a trap there.
