Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't.
I want to be cast.
I want...
You know what I think?
I want people to like me just so I can get jobs because I think that's ultimately what it's about.
You see all these people who aren't necessarily that talented, who work consistently, and I think to myself, that person must be a great guy.
You know, people just want to work with him because he's fine, but he's not like tearing it up.
Or this guy must be a jerk because he worked consistently and then you don't see him anymore.
I think this happened when I was doing Children's Hospital, when I was putting together Children's Hospital, which is this tiny, barely a show on barely a network.
It was on Adult Swim, which is half a network, and this was an 11-minute show on Adult Swim, live action.
And we did it for seven years.
And I realized then that the only goal that's worth having in this business is to surround yourself by people you love or expect to love and just try to write an original joke.
It's near impossible to do the original joke part, but to surround yourself with people that you like or will like or wanna like or know are likable, that's the only, that's really one of my only criteria, really.
Do good shit with people who aren't dicks.
So maybe these guys are dicks.
I don't know.
I liked everybody on The Daily Show.
And I think everybody was really good at their jobs.
