People do it.
Yeah, we all do.
But nothing beats a weekly show.
structure and then you're coming back to it with your eyes now like oh wow we're putting on a little show let's not take it too seriously it's all pretend and have more fun with it you know we did Just Shoot Me George Siegel had everyone on that show had done some good things and then had some tough times and so it was a good mix of people that are like we're so lucky to have this show so there was no prima donnas other than me there was no assholes other than me so
That was a sort of good lesson.
But I had my own things.
I had a tough time on SNL.
So getting on something where someone was writing for me and it was steady.
And about fame, like you're saying you're in big picture.
Great, I remember that perfectly.
And the other movies, I saw Tango and Cash, of course.
And soap dishing.
So you're building, building, building.
And then when you get on a weekly thing, that's where fame hits because when people see you over and over and over.
And then Lois and Clark was a pretty big deal.
So there's TV Guide.
There's more from that.
Then it's like almost overwhelming probably.
And you're not allowed to complain because everyone's like, oh, you're on a hit fucking show.
Frustration and tears or whatever you want to call it.
