blow five gonna last people shows
I will tell you that the last five shows are going to really blow people out of the water. There's gonna be a lot of head-spinning going on.
along bang beg bills bus cancer city curb death dog dollars goes hard hit leaves left life limp massive medical million mouth owe pay people power regain side speak step streets talk ten walk wife work
Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.
games play people
There's nothing wrong with an actor that can't improvise, but if you're going to improvise, you gotta make sure you got people that can play the game.
people trying done
People are disappointed that you aren't exactly who they thought you were, as opposed to somebody who's just walking around trying to get some laundry done.
people done way
On a movie, you have a great time, and you're really enjoying the work, and then everybody is done and goes their separate ways, and you maybe never get to work with those people again.
people want wake-up
I'm one of the people that when I wake up I have to do what I do. It's not like I want to do it. I kind of have to do it.
thinking people comedian
You get to a certain point, especially if you're a comedian, where people think certain things. It's like, I don't take the time to explain it to people, it's just part of what I do.
people human-nature humans
It's human nature for people to expect people to be what they see on the screen.
people battle cameras
The biggest battle for a lot of people who come out of the theater, which is where I was trained, is that they can never forget that a camera is pointed at them.
character people groups
One of those things that I like about TV is that if you get a group of people you like, you can work with these people for months at a time, and you can discover their strengths and weaknesses, and you can use those in the direction where you take the characters.
years people challenges
In my experience in series TV, if you have a good crew and a great cast, it's going to be a great group - similar to the theater where it's a bunch of people who are really talented and go to work each day and challenge each other, and if you are lucky enough to get a hit then it's five or six or seven years of this kind of work.
america fire people
Most people don't know how underpaid and often ill-equipped urban fire departments are across North America.
people sticks my-favorite
If you do good work, it tends to stick around. People still come up to me and say, ''The Ref' is my favorite Christmas movie.'
funny humor people
Peter Falk and Denis Leary today walked into a Starbucks and shot 27 people, without any announcement whatsoever.
