I want to get my own show because 'Today' will eventually get tired of me, or the audience will get tired of me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
One day I would like to have my own art show.
Eventually, somewhere - be it on the Internet or somewhere else - I will host some version of 'The Daily Show.'
Apart from hard work and being in the right projects, you need to re-invent yourself. I'd be bored doing the same thing over and over, and the audience wouldn't like it, too. The trick is to break that monotony.
I want to be doing something where I'm running my own show.
One of my producers said this business is like a hamster on that little wheel thing that goes around and around. You may have a great day and get great ratings, but then you've got another show to do - whatever moment of success or happiness you have you've got to keep grinding it out for the next day.
I don't doll myself up for TV because I want people to accept me for who I am.
If people are paying money to see me, then I want them to walk away from the show knowing they had a really great time. I want it to be very energetic and to have fun, sad, emotional and uplifting moments. I want it to have everything!
As much as I am one for real human interaction, I also want to make a show that's entertaining and that people want to see.
I think the way I sort of approach it is, you just sort of keep your head down and focus on what you are doing and making shows that people will want to see on Thursday night.
People always used to say to me, 'Don't you want your own show? That'd be so cool if you had your own show.' I said, 'You know, it's not gonna happen. So - no.'
