The secret of doing well on TV is to understand that it's not too important. A lot of people watching doesn't change anything.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think one reason TV has always done well is because there is something comforting where you kind of know what you're going to be taken through.
I know a lot of actors don't watch themselves on TV, but I think it's good to see how else you can improve.
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.
Doing TV is great, but TV is for starring on, not for watching.
It's a strange thing to have a successful television show because if it's too interesting... people don't really pay attention when they watch TV. It has to be good, but not so interesting that you really have to pay attention because people multitask. So, if a show demands your entire attention, it has a tough time making it.
I think it's really important to have good quality drama on TV.
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.
I don't really know much about TV and what people want to see. I'm not that well-informed about it.
Good television people have a sense of what television people relate to.
I think it's terribly important to watch TV. I think there's a sort of minimum number of hours of TV a day you ought to watch, and unless you watch three or four hours of TV a day, you're just closing your eyes to some of the most important sort of stream of consciousness that's going on!
