It's incredible. Twenty-three minutes on the air, and I've got to shoot for twelve, fifteen hours a day. What the hell's that?

I've never seen a schedule where you just go in two hours almost every day of the week and then all day on one day. Then you shoot it at night with an audience and you're out of there.

It's so hard and impossible to shoot in L.A. The costs are astronomical.

It's sometimes tiring to get off a long-haul flight and go straight to the studio for a shoot, but if you really plan everything well, you can get so much out of combining travel with work.

Most of my work has been in L.A. or booked in L.A. and shot on location.

I went over to shoot for six days. It turned out to be ten days, very nicely so. A little money.

A lot of the TV shows, they do long hours, and they do a lot of days, and you don't get a lot of time. But the good thing is, if you get one that's made in L.A., or made in a place you want to be, you get to go home every night.

I've been to L.A., it's horrible. Don't waste your money on the flight.

Sometimes you shoot for 40 or 50 hours for a one-hour show, and you have to make some very hard choices.

I deliberately fly in and out of LA for as small a time as humanly possible.
