I don't watch a lot of TV anymore. A lot of it isn't the kind of thing you can feel comfortable with watching with your kids. And I still feel that way even though, now, my kids are in their 30s.
From Tim Conway
My career is pretty much over. I'm out in the Valley eating soft-boiled eggs.
When I watch TV, I'm embarrassed by some of what's on.
I figure you're only here for a matter of moments. Ever since I was a kid watching movies I've always wanted to make people laugh or have some sort of emotional reaction.
We kept a broad audience, and we didn't make fun of people who had necessarily made mistakes in their life and burned them to the ground. We made fun of a commercial or a movie or ourselves.
The reason 'The Carol Burnett Show' did so well in the ratings is because people were looking for that comfort zone when the whole family sat around and watched television and enjoyed it.
A lot of people like to live on laurels that happened 20 or 30 years ago, but it's nice to get awards. It's nice to be labeled and things like that, but I'm not sure everybody qualifies.
I have a lot of awards in my house that I have absolutely no idea what they are for.
When you're small, you either are funny, or you get beat up a lot.
My parents were very funny - they didn't know it. But they were. They were actually sharing an IQ.
