The weird thing about working in television is that you only see the people that you're in scenes with.

You tend to get reluctant to talk about anything until the day before filming.

I always knew I wanted to be in front of the camera. But even after 10 years behind the scenes at CBS News producing live segments, celebrity profiles, and breaking news, I still hadn't been given the chance to be on TV.

There are times when you're working with film people when you have to say, 'If the camera were on you, what you're doing would be perfect'.

With TV, you're in people's houses every night. And you have so much time to tell stories. I don't know why I didn't do it before.

That's what's so great about television. You're able to tell this long story, where you couldn't really do that in a film because you have to tell a story in an hour and a half or two hours.

It is really funny to see people that you know acting unpleasantly just because there are TV cameras on.

I'm not going to name some of my colleagues who are very well-known for their television presentation, but they wouldn't know new information or how to report a story if it came up and bit them.

I'm not someone who enjoys long talks, long rehearsals. I'm very technical: I tell my actors, you come in, you sit down, you pick up a coffee, you look here, you say the line. We try it with the cameras rolling, and if it doesn't work, we adjust it until it does. It's very simple.
