Everyone enjoys downtime at home, I'm sure, for various reasons, but I find the whole system of being out there and doing shows for people - the more of it you do, in fact the more energizing it is, for me individually.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've worked in television long enough to know that when you stop enjoying that type of thing you go home and do something else.
Every so often, you have to do a show that makes you walk to your car with your head down, wondering what you're doing with your life. It's good for you, as long as you're not feeling that way every night.
I really enjoy spending time at home.
You look at shows like The Simpsons or Larry Sanders or Curb Your Enthusiasm or Seinfeld, they're really sophisticated shows that we all love back home.
I enjoy what I do, but I also do it on time because my audience is very pervasive; they're everywhere, and they will constantly remind me if I'm not on time.
And I love having the job to go to every week. With movies, there's a lot of downtime. I like working, and television really does that.
There's nothing like doing a show at home. When you do a show in Chicago, there's just a certain love that you don't feel anywhere else; it's like home base.
I watch a lot of home stuff; I like seeing things go from one thing to another and get fixed up.
For true downtime, I enjoy going for light runs, having drinks with friends and going to the movies with my husband.
I feel my shows are like a late-night talk show that we settle down and do every night.
