kind of were like moved in a way that they were with Grey's Anatomy, like network television that was giving us something that wasn't, you know, you just fold your laundry and let it play in the background. It's always exciting when something comes along that just grabs everybody. And so when I got the opportunity, I was like, yeah,

Yeah, I want to be a part of that because shows like Community and The Searchers would kind of come along. This Is Us was one of those shows where in the industry people were kind of whispering and sniffing around going, what's that about to be? And so, yeah, I was just honored to come on and do something in an episode. People will hit me. People are like, oh, I'm watching This Is Us.

I was watching it. The fact that people still hit me about it, it's like, yeah, people are just re-watching the show, which is such a rarity. I always say a true success of art is something that people want to go back and revisit. So when you watch them shows, they're like, oh, I was watching the reruns of that.

You know what? It was never part of the plan. It was part of God's plan. It wasn't part of mine. I always wanted to be behind the scenes. I wanted to write television. Obviously, A Different World had a huge impact on me, Home and Grab Productions. I remember watching that show and just knowing I really wanted to be a television writer.

That's what a different world and Cosby show. That's what those shows really meant for me. I was like, I want to write TV. Never really had the performance bug, but I've always been a ham. I mean, my mom would call me a ham when I was a young kid. But I think that's because I watched so much television.
