Adult Swim's philosophy is, 'Put it on the air and if it works, great. If it doesn't, take it down and try again.' It's a refreshing way to do TV, I think.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Adult Swim has cornered this really cool market, especially for comedy shows.
ABC is owned by Disney, so it's a little more conservative than Adult Swim. Polar opposites.
My experience as a young actor on network television was that I couldn't make it work. I was drowning as an actor.
It's interesting: I've been doing this since I was 17, and it's kind of weird to see yourself grow up on television.
I had the idea for the show like a year and a half, two years ago. And it was all about the things that I didn't like about TV. I was trying to create a positive solution for it. And it actually worked.
The whole thing about doing TV is that you never know what's going to happen. You just have to go with it and go with the flow.
Television is fast and loose. You have two or three takes to get your part right, and if you have a problem, well, by the time you figure it out, everyone's moved on to the next scene. It's good training, keeps you on your toes.
It's always nerve-wracking when you're hosting 'Saturday Night Live.' You either sink or swim.
One of the things that's fun about TV is it grows, and you set goals and aim towards stuff, and one of the writers has an idea, and you say, 'Ooh, that's so much cooler. Let's do that instead.' It's so much more fluid and organic that way, and that's the most fun part about it.
Normal television limits what you can do. With science fiction, you can exercise your imagination more. I fell in love with it.
