I do a show. It comes on late at night on TV. And if that means I'm a late-night talk show host, then I guess I am, but in every other regard I resign my commission, I don't care for it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Don't ever rope me in as a late-night talk show host. I don't want to be one.
I've been accused of being unambitious, but what I do takes up every minute. I'm executive producer, I'm a writer and the host.
I feel my shows are like a late-night talk show that we settle down and do every night.
I'd like to think I'm an actor who leaves things at work.
The truth is, we have this idea that late night is about creativity and being cool, but that's not our job. Our job is to get as many people watching the commercials in between our show. That's the reality of it.
It's cool that people like what I do, but I don't work for the audience.
It's very interesting to know what people are doing while you're working on late-night television.
I have called the co-host job at the 'Today Show' my dream job, and I would be lying if I said it was easy to leave that job.
I've never worked for a show or was on a show where I didn't have a lot of control creatively, but then again, I haven't worked on a lot of shows.
You do a job; your show gets canceled. You get used to it.
