When you're a regular on your show, that's your family. When people come in and out, it doesn't mean that you don't embrace them, but they have to leave.

I don't understand that, because I think that what people like most about the show is that they recognize themselves in the characters and their problems, so the more believable the family is, the more we can draw the audience in.

I think people love shows that are relationship-oriented. I think they love family shows.

Whenever you do a show, there are happy reunions of people; it's very familial.

There is a great degree of comfort with your family when you're on a TV show.

My years on 'Family Matters' were precious to me. During the run of the show, I saw many births, deaths, weddings... The actual family on the show became my family.

I've made out more this season on a family-friendly show than ever in my actual life.

I was being flirted with for 'Modern Family,' which my wife still hasn't let me live down, but it's one of those things where that show is so brilliant because the casting couldn't be any more perfect. It wouldn't have been right for me, and I wouldn't have been right for it.

I often say, if I wasn't part of the show I'd be a huge fan of it.

If you're a member of my family, whether immediate or extended, and you want to see my show, don't.
