More quotes by Kevin Nealon
I enjoyed living in New York City, I liked the premise of the show [Saturday Night Live], I liked working with a different host every week and different musicians. I always thought, This is great. I never expected to get this in the first place, so I'm just happy being here.
Kevin Nealon
As a comedian, you're kind of like a blues musician you have to live a little bit.
Kevin Nealon
I'm Kevin Nealon, and that's news to me.

When I first began doing TV pilots, my expectations were high. I didn't understand that world. So when 'Weeds' took off, I was so happy. Especially as I was just a guest star in the pilot. But once it got picked up, they made me a regular cast member.
Kevin Nealon
I've noticed a surge when I go out somewhere, or if I'm doing stand-up.
Kevin Nealon
If people can't deal with their problems, they numb themselves a little bit.

It seems like all the sitcoms on now, the families are kind of dysfunctional.
Kevin Nealon
I am whelmed, and not overly whelmed, just whelmed about a lot of facets in life - just how fragile life is and the different challenges you have in life, phobias about things.
Kevin Nealon
Basically, I'm a people pleaser who has a knack for disappointing.

When I was very young, I didn't really write my own material. I just memorized other peoples' jokes. Established comics, like Stanley Myron Handelman and people like that. And then, for every comic, you develop your own style after a while.
Kevin Nealon
A whole generation of people that didn't know me from 'SNL' recognize me from 'Weeds' now. People recognize me once in a while and appreciate the work. It gets a little embarrassing but it's good. If you work as an accountant, you don't have people coming up to you in the streets saying, 'Hey, great job on tax statements!'
Kevin Nealon
When I began doing stand-up, it took me a long time to get an hour's worth of material together.
Kevin Nealon
A special validates you as a stand-up by documenting your material.
Kevin Nealon
I loved working on 'Happy Gilmore' because I love to travel to new places and we got to go to British Columbia. Any Adam Sandler film is fun to work on because it is a reunion of the boys club of guys that have worked together in the past.
Kevin Nealon
I never really got into marketing. I went to school for it, but never pursued it once I got out. Instead, I went to Europe for about two months, just traveling around in youth hostels and Eurail trains with my friends.
Kevin Nealon
A lot of baby boomers are baby bongers.
Kevin Nealon
Saturday Night Live was a show that I never thought I would be on, because I didn't do sketch comedy and I didn't do impressions. I was a stand-up.
Kevin Nealon
I think the education system is great just the way it is. There's kids in my neighborhood in Los Angeles, seven years old, that can already speak fluent Spanish.
Kevin Nealon
I think Little Nicky was a divergence from the films Adam Sandler was used to doing, and he was taking a risk. I admire him for doing that.
Kevin Nealon
I like to stuff myself at Thanksgiving, not turkeys.
