Parodies of commercials are by no means new and have been popular going back to black-and-white TV shows of the ’50s.

Audiences see personalities on shows interacting with wild animals as if they were not dangerous or, at the other extreme, provoking them to give viewers an adrenaline rush. Mostly, the animals just want to be...

I think someone should invent an edible remote control, to go along with TV dinners.

I feel like obviously the standard for what TV looks like changes all the time.

My first crush was Barry Manilow. He performed on TV and I taped it. When no one was around I’d kiss the screen.

TV writing is tricky to navigate because you have so many different personalities – the actors, multiple producers.

In previous centuries, the Church was the great controller, dictating morality, stifling free expression and posing as conservator of all great art and music. Instead we have TV, doing just as good a job at...

…we spend more time gazing at luminous screens than into the eyes of our loved ones.

I’m not a nerd, I play one on TV.

Only the TV sounds are real, they are the actual events. All the people around here experience the same things at the same time, except for some loner, who switches to the educational channel.

Most of the performances I see on TV and in movies are so self-conscious and overacted. I would think a natural actress would be welcome.

Because you don’t learn anything unless you can find the patience to read. TV takes that away from you. It robs you from your mind.

Who bothers to cook TV dinners? I suck them frozen.

TV is where a writer can write his novel.

If I don’t work, I’ll be sitting on the couch watching TV, eating popcorn and getting like a cow.

Usually I spare myself from the news, because if it’s not propaganda, then it’s one threat or another exaggerated to the point of absurdity, or it’s the tragedy of storm-quake-tsunami, of bigotry and oppression misnamed...

Bob Altman got nothing from the TV series ‘M*A*S*H,’ and the royalties for the theme song went to his oldest son, Michael, who wrote it as a 15-year-old poet!

That’s the kind of TV I like to watch, where you just don’t know what’s going to happen.
