That chemistry that we had [with Fred Savage] is very, very hard to find. We were lucky to have those 22 episodes [of The Grinder]. I'm unendingly proud of it.

I think that in today's world the right to privacy and freedom of the press are set on a collision course.

I have other obligations now - the show, my family, my life... though I know that without my sobriety I wouldn't have any of those things.

I can't help but be a little more gun-shy and wary about people.

[On "John F. Kennedy" set] everybody was very interested in the accent. Even my collaborators were very curious to know if I was even going to do it. And I was, like, "You just can't not do it." I think everybody was worried that it was going to sound like the guy from... is it The Simpsons?

Fred Savage,he's America's sweetheart, like I always say. One of the funniest, nicest, most decent... I love him like a brother.

There's an argument that maybe [The Grinder] was better suited for streaming or cable. I don't know. I still like to think there's a place for smart, subversive, original comedies on networks.
