There was really a snobbery from people in film - they did not want people who had come from television. It was the poor relation of show business, and especially situation comedy.

My last son is leaving to go to college; my grandchildren are being born. My mother is living with me.

You try to get rid of the things that are weighing you down.

But I was losing so much bone density that I would have been in grave danger. And I mean grave danger. If I had let it go just a few more years I could have broken my hip or spine just picking up my granddaughter

When I was born, the doctor looked at my mother and said, "Congratulations, you have an actor!"

I really like cable T.V.

You know, people really don't understand what actors do.
