I'm wide open to getting married, but actors are not easy people to date. You end up sharing that person with this other mistress that is their career. I very much like the traditional courtship method of making a date. That's what they do in normal places, but Hollywood's not normal.
I always thought it would be funny to have the Parents Television Council write an episode of 'Family Guy' and give them full creative control. Then see how good the episode is. That's something we've actually discussed in the writers' room. We haven't proposed it yet, but if somebody from the PTC reads this, it might be worth discussing.
I distrust all television doctors.
'American Dad' is, by its nature, much more political.
The good thing about Broadway is that you don't have to worry about an airdate. It gets done when it gets done.
Nobody sets out to offend or shock for the sake of shocking. You set out to get laughs.
With any half-hour comedy, it kind of takes on its own life and finds itself.
Obviously I'm a big fan of 'South Park', but it gets tiring at times when there's so much of it.
When 'Family Guy' started, we wanted to make it more like a sitcom. And there was very little music.
Most of the outrage comes from not the public, but from the media, the press and writers.
The trend today is vampires, zombies, angels, all the stuff that puts me right to sleep. It's too bad because it's so much less interesting than the diversity of stories you can tell with science.
Whoever invented spray cheese had to have been a Harvard guy.
Sarah Palin is very pro-life of course, unless the life is that of an Iraqi civilian or a wolf running frantically from a roaring helicopter while being strafed with ribbons of automatic weapons fire.
The relationship between Aquaman and Aqualad should be investigated.
