The only problem is time.

The good thing about Broadway is that you don't have to worry about an airdate. It gets done when it gets done.

I'm wide open to getting married, but actors are not easy people to date. You end up sharing that person with this other mistress that is their career. I very much like the traditional courtship method of making a date. That's what they do in normal places, but Hollywood's not normal.

'American Dad' is, by its nature, much more political.

Chris Elliott could read the phonebook and he's funny.

Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.

I can't believe I am hosting the Oscars. It's an honor everyone else said no.

I cannot tell good art from bad art. I have no eye for it.

I still do a lot of drawing on a daily basis.

I was a big Fred Flintstone fan.

I wrote on a show called Johnny Bravo when I was at Hanna-Barbera.

Some of those more out-there jokes were written in the wee hours of the morning. Somehow, they remained funny the next day.

The quest for Tommy Lee Jones' laugh begins now.

The worst thing to happen at the Oscars would be if nothing happened. You want something unscripted, something to riff on, something kinda out there.

There have to be people who are vocal about the advancement of knowledge over faith.

When you are in a room and your job is to write jokes 10 hours a day, your mind starts going to strange places.

With any half-hour comedy, it kind of takes on its own life and finds itself.

You gotta keep the funny intact.

I think at times I read too much of my own press. I wish I was better at taking in how great my life is, but that's surprisingly elusive. I tend to be very hard on myself and insecure about failing no matter what happens.

The success of 'The Simpsons' really opened doors. It showed that if you were working in animation you didn't necessarily have to be working in kids' television.
