Look at the Native American culture. They revere the elders.

Nothing is set up like a comedy bit. I did sitcoms for 10 years. Literally from 1989 to 1999. That's almost all I did. Whenever I got away from television I was like, "Phew, thank God that's over. I am never going back."

I hate it when women fight aging with plastic surgery or fashion choices. There's this arrogant youth worship in our society.

There's moments that are very personal in The Divorce. There are moments that are sort of unwatchably vulgar or intimate or pathetic. I even had this conversation with my mom. My mom saw the pilot and she was like, "I just thought that some of it seemed nasty." I'm like, "Mom. You're from a whole different generation. And yeah. There's some nastiness that goes on."

Villains with a conscience have this sad realization of who they are, and the monster they've become — there's a sense of regret. So at the end of these movies there's a dramatic resonance that really stays with the audience.

As an actor I kind of do. I started out doing voice overs in the mid 80s when I was in grad school.

I love going to the feed store and drinking coffee and talking about how much rain we need.
