I take having a kids' show real seriously. I think it's an enormous responsibility.

The public already knows about me more than I ever wanted it to know.

I'd love to direct, and I think I'd be a great director, but... I've been approved by the studio to direct, which I think is a cool jump of faith for them. Or proof that they're really stupid. But I don't think so.

I'm fortunately not in a situation where someone owns me.

We're in a situation now where fewer and fewer small films get made. People want these big giant tentpole sort of things, and I don't know, it's getting harder and harder to make a small movie.

I wouldn't sell my bike for all the money in the world. Not for a hundred million, trillion, billion dollars!

You'd get on the plane; and every single person is somebody really, really famous. It just killed me. On one flight you'd have Linda Gray, O.J. Simpson, Robert De Niro, Carol Burnett, Loni Anderson and Burt Reynolds... and Francis Ford Coppola.
