The good thing about Broadway is that you don't have to worry about an airdate. It gets done when it gets done.

The way Disney characters move, they're very kind of slow and fluid and flowing one pose kind of eases into the next. If you look at a show like 'The Simpsons' and subsequently a show like 'Family Guy' - the characters will jerk from pose to pose a lot, a bit more snappy. Which sort of goes along with the writing tone of the show.

I'm from Connecticut, and we don't have any dialects. Well, I don't think we have any dialects, and yeah, it's very complex. That Rhode Island/Massachusetts New England region is arguably the hardest dialect to nail.

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.

Believe it or not, I have about the same success rate as anyone else. Sometimes you hit, sometimes you miss.

The success of The Simpsons really opened doors. It showed that if you were working in animation you didn't necessarily have to be working in kids' television.

Nobody sets out to offend or shock for the sake of shocking. You set out to get laughs.

Evolution doesn't care whether you believe in it or not, no more than gravity does. I want to rekindle excitement over what we've achieved as a species with the space program. We can't afford to regress back to the days of superstition.

When you are in a room and your job is to write jokes 10 hours a day, your mind starts going to strange places.

I tend to lean more towards the Westerns of the 40s and 50s as opposed to the 60s and 70s. They get a little too drab for me when you get into the Spaghetti Western era. I love the John Ford movies. I love the music. I love the scope.

The Simpsons are ugly-looking, and they should be. That's what works. That's one of the things that's funny.

I spent my entire childhood in the same town, in Kent. I went to grade school there. There was a boarding school that my mother taught at, called - appropriately enough - Kent School, that I went to. Yeah, pretty much my entire childhood was spent in that town.

I have a car that I like - an Aston Martin - for Sunday drives in the country.

Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.

'American Dad' is, by its nature, much more political.

The quest for Tommy Lee Jones' laugh begins now.

There are people on staff who have made that point, that the upside to a second Bush term is that it makes 'American Dad' work better. To me, the price is too high. I would gladly give up the comedy to have a President Kerry. But you work with what you have.

The relationship between Aquaman and Aqualad should be investigated.
