I plan someday to do a one-man show based solely on the e-mails of Bellamy Young. And people will think I've written a brilliant comedy myself when, in fact, all the text will be directly from Bellamy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have played Blair Cramer for 20 years, I feel a personal investment in the success of 'One Life to Live.' I love the show, I'm a fan of the characters, and I have invested in the journey these fictional characters have traveled.
In my own defense, I wrote a one-man show, and that to me was more where I fit.
Are you loving having these great iconic stories back as much as I am? 'One Life' is back in action and I love putting my 'Blair on' again.
I've yet to write a stand-up show that isn't autobiographical.
I wound up getting pulled into being a consultant on the Lifetime drama 'For the People.' The executive producer said, 'I want you to write scripts.' We sold pilots to a bunch of different networks.
When I was in high school I saw Steven Wright, a brilliant one-liner comedian, and I thought: 'That's what I should do; I should write one-liners.' And I did. My first album is mostly one-liners.
I'm also doing a special for Comedy Central called Autobiography. It's going to be a spoof of Biography.
The first thing I read was of my character on the phone talking to Sydney's fiance. Though short, it was so beautifully written, and it made me laugh. I thought if I wanted to play a character, this would be it.
It would be a dream come true to appear on Turner Classic Movies with Robert Osborne, who is one of my heroes.
I never imagined myself doing a one-man show. If I'm going to do one, I'd rather do one that breaks all the rules.
