Doing TV is great, but TV is for starring on, not for watching.

Watching TV is companionable: you share an experience, you can comment on the action here and there for a bit of conversation... it's a way of showing someone that you want his or her company and engaging in a low-key, pleasant, undemanding way.

Television is a device that permits people who haven't anything to do to watch people who can't do anything.

I didn't see myself doing TV. It's time-consuming.

Believe it or not, I don't own a TV. Crazy huh? I'm not a big movie-goer either. I just feel like I'm watching work. I am always outside and couldn't care less about what's on TV these days.

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

Television is a visual medium. You have to create some kind of visual interest. And it's entertainment for your eyes.

Television is an invention that permits you to be entertained in your living room by people you wouldn't have in your home.

You don't really have time to watch TV if you work on TV.

While television is a good servant, it's a bad master. It can swallow up huge quantities of our lives without much happiness bang for the buck.
