If you're doing television, you get to be a character for a long time, and the cast around you becomes like family. You get attached to playing that one character, and it's hard leaving them behind.

The kids don't really have any part of my television life. Fortunately, there aren't many times when show business intrudes on our family existence.

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.

That's why I love doing television because it's something that fans and viewers can sit down each week and get to know your character and get to know the show and get to know what's going on and fall in love with you all over again, like they did in previous shows.

You get to that age where you're watching a lot of television, and who doesn't want to be on television?

As I got older, I never considered that tons of people were watching me on television every week. I give a nod to my parents for keeping me as normal as I could be in an un-normal adult world.

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

TV is my first love and I haven't disappeared from it totally.

Television is the original social network. Consumers love great television, but they also love talking about television. Sharing with friends the thrill of the last episode, debating what will happen next, working to enlist friends to watch the same shows that you love.

Some people will humiliate themselves or their families just to be on television.
