I'm severely overrated. I'm just above a hack. That should be the name of my new DVD: 'Chris Rock: Slightly Above Hack'.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've always been a fan of 'Beat It,' 'You Rock My World,' and 'Smooth Criminal.'
I'm a firm believer that character is highly overrated. Character is a trick that we do with the audience's collusion.
At night, I try to sneak in some of the shows that I love. I can't live without '30 Rock' - I was a fan before I joined the show in 2007 - and 'The Office.' 'Revenge' is my drama. And I love Jimmy Kimmel if I can stay up late enough to watch him.
If you think I'm over-the-top, I am.
A lot of comics aren't their on-screen personas; Chris Rock isn't always ranting and raving. What I do is make myself this over-the-top character that people either find endearing or they think is a joke. Then I can do anything I want.
What heartens me is to see '30 Rock' on the air. It makes me laugh from my gut, which I really like to do.
I'm a big fan of '30 Rock,' which I think is the most genius show on television.
I've heard from writers and musicians and fans that they think I'm underrated.
I specialize in movies that people say are underrated, with the exception of 'Superbad.'
I think it would be pompous to say I am an underrated actor. I don't think it is for me to think and decide; it is for people to decide. But I am glad I am underrated than being overrated - that is something I would find hard to digest.
