If you're on a network show, it's either some wacky sitcom or a drama where you're servicing a procedure. ~ Mark Feuerstein
Sitcom quotes by Mark Feuerstein
Nerves are always a big problem for me, which is why I loved doing American sitcoms. Because you know when you do the take in front of the audience that you're going to do it again afterwards. A minute after you finish, you just go and do it again. So, there's that sort of safety net. And then if you made a little mistake or two, they'll go pick it up, so there's nothing to worry about. ~ John Cleese
Sitcom quotes by John Cleese
It's so stupid, I know, to want your life to be a sitcom ~ Erika L. Sánchez
Sitcom quotes by Erika L. Sánchez
I started in theater. I would liken sitcom work more to theater work than I would, perhaps, to dramatic television. It's so quick. It kind of feels like the pace of a play. ~ James Wolk
Sitcom quotes by James Wolk
In 1977, at age ten, I was cast on the TV sitcom 'Good Times.' My character was Penny, an abused child in desperate need of love. I really didn't want to do the show. I didn't want to be away from my family. ~ Janet Jackson
Sitcom quotes by Janet Jackson
I'm not a movie guy, I'm not a TV sitcom guy, but whatever seems to fit and is funny is good for me. ~ Dave Attell
Sitcom quotes by Dave Attell
The terrible irony is that when our current job turns out to provide neither much money nor much fun, we think we can solve the problem by getting a better job. So it goes on: an endless cycle, a miserable set-up, as satirized brilliantly in the UK sitcom The Office. ~ Tom Hodgkinson
Sitcom quotes by Tom Hodgkinson
My very first job was something called 'Nobody's Watching,' that Bill Lawrence who created 'Scrubs,' it was his pilot. It was my very first TV job, and it was a sitcom. Ever since that experience, I've been so itching to get back to that kind of environment and just to be involved with comedy. ~ Mircea Monroe
Sitcom quotes by Mircea Monroe
I would never do another sitcom. It was so boring I wanted to pull my fingernails off. ~ Daniel Baldwin
Sitcom quotes by Daniel Baldwin
When I came out of my mom's womb, I had 'sitcom' stamped on my forehead. ~ Sean Hayes
Sitcom quotes by Sean Hayes
I don't like the idea of being a human being, existing, talking to my friends, and having these real human conversations, and then getting to work on a sitcom and turning that part of my brain off. ~ Jerrod Carmichael
Sitcom quotes by Jerrod Carmichael
When I did the sitcom I was too naive. I thought, Well, they know what they're talking about, let's do that. ~ Jeff Foxworthy
Sitcom quotes by Jeff Foxworthy
The goals for me have changed somewhat. There's a bit of seduction to the idea of being on network, but it got to the point where that wasn't important. What's important is doing something worthwhile. Which is why I've always avoided being on a sitcom. Yeah, it's high-profile and it's on a network, but you know what? You could be on Suddenly Stewart. ~ Jon Stewart
Sitcom quotes by Jon Stewart
A sitcom is the closest thing for me to doing stage because you work in front of an audience, and if it's well written it can be very satisfying. ~ Nathan Lane
Sitcom quotes by Nathan Lane
Beguiled by George S. Bush's easy smile and casual indifference to the details, we are on the brink of electing him to office. This isn't choosing a president, it's casting the lead in a sitcom about the presidency. ~ Roger Ebert
Sitcom quotes by Roger Ebert
Sitcoms always made the most sense to me. I grew up watching them every day with my dad. Every Monday, Tuesday night, we would be sitting in front of the television watching any kind of sitcom. I connect with that more, but I love to do whatever kind of role. ~ Hayley Orrantia
Sitcom quotes by Hayley Orrantia
Acting in a sitcom or a comedy movie is like a comedy routine with the setups. ~ Bill Burr
Sitcom quotes by Bill Burr
I've thought my show would be a sitcom or a talk show. Never in a million years would I have thought my show would be docu-series/reality because you always think reality is something crazy. ~ Kym Whitley
Sitcom quotes by Kym Whitley
'The Simpsons' basically - and 'Futurama' - are really smart shows. They're kind of disguised as these goofy animated sitcoms, but the references within the shows, if you're paying attention, are pretty smart and pretty sophisticated. ~ Matt Groening
Sitcom quotes by Matt Groening
Even before I got on 'SNL' I assumed I would do some type of sitcom; I kind of thought that was how I would start. I don't mean to sound arrogant - I just thought I would be best suited to the form. ~ Casey Wilson
Sitcom quotes by Casey Wilson
Coming from sitcom television and coming from music you burn up every single second. You don't leave anything there. You burn it up and you pass out when you walk off stage, so I took that concept into acting. ~ Will Smith
Sitcom quotes by Will Smith
Every sitcom needs their straight man or straight woman. ~ Aarti Mann
Sitcom quotes by Aarti Mann
Writing is the greatest thing about really good sitcoms. ~ Megyn Price
Sitcom quotes by Megyn Price
I would really like to do a really cool one-hour show, maybe on, like, HBO or something like that; or something that I've spent a couple of years developing so it would be exactly the character and exactly in with a huge push behind it; or I would maybe want to do a sitcom; something light and funny. ~ Jennifer Love Hewitt
Sitcom quotes by Jennifer Love Hewitt
I always try to use my medium, and if I get into a normal sitcom-writing contest with normal sitcom writers, I'm going to lose. ~ Dan Harmon
Sitcom quotes by Dan Harmon
I've always had this theory that God is a sitcom writer who loves to put me in ridiculous situations. ~ Angie Thomas
Sitcom quotes by Angie Thomas
The key to sitcom success is miserable people. If you see a happy couple, it's just gone, like when Sam and Diane got together on Cheers. ~ Matthew Perry
Sitcom quotes by Matthew Perry
I don't think I could ever do a network sitcom because the humor is often based on some trite circumstance. I don't want to be a part of a show where it's mostly about coming up with the jokes. ~ Sherilyn Fenn
Sitcom quotes by Sherilyn Fenn
On the ground, Cash gave a signal, and all the guys lined up by the pool. In unison, they stripped off their shirts and tossed them onto the grass. An audible sigh- like the ones you hear on a sitcom that is "filmed in front of a live studio audience"- filled the room. It was almost funny, really. Such a strong reaction to a bunch of shirtless boys. ~ Kody Keplinger
Sitcom quotes by Kody Keplinger
I have hair that I audition with, my sitcom hair which is a curly wig. I have my long chic hair that I wear to my son's school so they know I'm not playing around. I always tell people that my husband gets a different woman every night when I come home from 'The View.' Hair makes you feel a certain way, like putting a power suit on. ~ Sherri Shepherd
Sitcom quotes by Sherri Shepherd
I love doing sitcoms. I love doing comedy. I love the whole shooting match. ~ Rachael Harris
Sitcom quotes by Rachael Harris
Like Andy Warhol and unlike God Almighty, Larry King does not presume to judge; all celebrities are equal in his eyes, saints and sinners alike sharing the same 'Love Boat' voyage into the dark beyond, a former sitcom star as deserving of pious send-off as Princess Diana. ~ James Wolcott
Sitcom quotes by James Wolcott
My experience tells me that any time you hear people laughing on a sitcom, it's the writers who happen to be closest to the microphones - not the audience. ~ Steven Weber
Sitcom quotes by Steven Weber
Basically, after an ABC sitcom I did, I ended up with a holding deal with 20th Century Fox. Absolutely cool. It pays you to be unemployed. And the bigger the entity that gives you the deal, the better. ~ Nathan Fillion
Sitcom quotes by Nathan Fillion
Knowing that Tom had a lot of connections in the television industry, I took the opportunity to pitch my sitcom idea to him that I had floating around in my head for years. According to Tom's frank assessment, a comedy about an Eastern Mediterranean peasant flying to America to live with his distant cousin and getting into crazy hijinks was a terrible idea. ~ Stuart McPhee
Sitcom quotes by Stuart McPhee
People would say, Can we develop a sitcom around you? and I would say, Not interested. I'm very happy doing standup and writing and taking my kids to school. ~ Jeff Foxworthy
Sitcom quotes by Jeff Foxworthy
You cannot begin to imagine the shock I had when I came down on the floor for the first time. First of all, there's this whole thing about playing sitcom comedy. I didn't want to do the sitcom thing, but I didn't know what else to do. I went slowly. We went through the week of rehearsal, then we got on the floor with the cameras, which I'm used to because of my experience in the old days. Then came camera day, with an audience, and it was stunning, enthralling, exciting and chaotic. I had never experienced anything like that before, as an actor. I was part minstrel, part actor. ~ William Shatner
Sitcom quotes by William Shatner
It was Christopher's brilliant concept that he did not want this to become like every other sitcom where you do one take, and the audience gets bored with seeing it ten times, you know, over and over again. ~ Stacy Keach
Sitcom quotes by Stacy Keach
After months of speculation, the sitcom star Ellen DeGeneres admitted that yes, she's gay. Inspired by her courage, today, diet-guru Richard Simmons admitted that he is really, really, really, really gay. ~ Norm MacDonald
Sitcom quotes by Norm MacDonald
I like playing characters that are complex, that are intriguing, that come from left field, that do things that are unexpected. I don't like people who just follow one line and that's it - that's why I could never be in a sitcom, I don't think. They're not intriguing enough for me. ~ Pete Postlethwaite
Sitcom quotes by Pete Postlethwaite
There are so many sitcoms. So, when you get to be a part of something that feels exciting to you, you just want to be a part of it. ~ Oliver Jackson-Cohen
Sitcom quotes by Oliver Jackson-Cohen
Sometimes I'll read things in the script and think, "That's not how humans behave," or "I don't understand how to do that role and make it seem like I'm not some kind of strange alien or on a sitcom." I don't get it, and when I feel that way, I have to listen to my instinct. My initial instinct does lead me in a direction that I can trust. ~ Maggie Gyllenhaal
Sitcom quotes by Maggie Gyllenhaal
When my sitcom 'Miranda' first became successful, I was so in the thick of working and I was so stressed that I didn't really enjoy the moment. You suddenly look back and go, 'Gosh, you've just got to enjoy every day.' And now I wake up and literally pinch myself every day. ~ Miranda Hart
Sitcom quotes by Miranda Hart
After watching Donald Trump on C-Span the other day, one can see it being easy to be convinced that what the public sees, at least from the press coverage, is just a bit of "reality television" spilling over into real life. His performance at the gathering was reminiscent of what may have happened had Archie Bunker walked out of the cartoon world of the television sitcom and went to speak at posh affair filled with the wax museum of Washington politicos and the buzzard-esque scowls of the press. All eyes fixed on the performer giving yet another exhibition of theatrical prowess. ~ Robert Montgomerie
Sitcom quotes by Robert Montgomerie
I was on a sitcom called 'Gary Unmarried' for 37 episodes, and then I was in 'Bad Teacher' with Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake. ~ Kathryn Newton
Sitcom quotes by Kathryn Newton
My favorite sitcom of all time is 'Cheers.' That's a perfect example of how, like, people made fun of Cliff, but you never got the sense that they didn't like Cliff. ~ Michael Schur
Sitcom quotes by Michael Schur
The film is better for me than the sitcom. But the sitcom is like much more practical approach, if I may say that, because of the cost. Everything costs money, a lot of people don't realize that. ~ Tommy Wiseau
Sitcom quotes by Tommy Wiseau
I was only 11 when we filmed the pilot. The idea of a rapper being a star on a sitcom just wasn't heard of. ~ Tatyana Ali
Sitcom quotes by Tatyana Ali
Everything comes to an end. A good bottle of wine, a summer's day, a long-running sitcom, one's life, and eventually our species. The question for many of us is not that everything will come to an end but when. And can we do anything vaguely useful until it does? ~ Jasper Fforde
Sitcom quotes by Jasper Fforde
People have this idea that nature dictates a sort of 1950s sitcom version of what males and females are like. That is just not the case in the insect world. ~ Marlene Zuk
Sitcom quotes by Marlene Zuk
When I was a kid I never knew the difference between a sitcom and a drama. I just knew what my parents were watching and what was making them happy. ~ Dan Harmon
Sitcom quotes by Dan Harmon
For centuries before Google, MIT, and IDEO, modern hotbeds of innovation, we struggled to explain any kind of creation, from the universe itself to the multitudes of ideas around us. While we can make atomic bombs, and dry-clean silk ties, we still don't have satisfying answers for simple questions like: Where do songs come from? Are there an infinite variety of possible kinds of cheese? How did Shakespeare and Stephen King invent so much, while we're satisfied watching sitcom reruns? Our popular answers have been unconvincing, enabling misleading, fantasy-laden myths to grow strong. ~ Scott Berkun
Sitcom quotes by Scott Berkun
[Make a sitcom] was really the idea of Executive Producer Joe Roth who owned the property over at Revolution Studios and said he was thinking about taking it to TV. And after he said that he already had [writer/director] Ali Leroi on board, and that he was going after Terry Crews, to me it was a no-brainer. I said, "Let's put this together!" ~ Ice Cube
Sitcom quotes by Ice Cube
Xiang wei is the character a good dish has when it's robust, flavorful, and balanced but still maintains a certain light quality. That flavor comes, lingers on your tongue, stays long enough to make you crave it, but just when you think you have it figured out, it's gone. Timing is everything. Soup dumplings, sitcoms, one-night stands - good ones leave you wanting more. ~ Eddie Huang
Sitcom quotes by Eddie Huang
You don't really see sleepwalking in films that often. It's weird; I feel like in popular culture we have the perception of sitcom, arms-in-front-of-your-body sleepwalking, and then maybe Olive Oil and Popeye when she sleepwalks through the construction site. But it's all very cartoonish, in some cases literally. ~ Mike Birbiglia
Sitcom quotes by Mike Birbiglia
Working on a sitcom and improv improves your comedic chops. If you do it long enough, the one thing you learn to do is listen to the other characters. ~ Diedrich Bader
Sitcom quotes by Diedrich Bader
I really enjoy doing sitcom television. It allows me to stay in Los Angeles and spend more time with my husband and kids. ~ Nancy Travis
Sitcom quotes by Nancy Travis
I am actually working on The Neighbors sitcom. We are starting from scratch. I am also working on a comedy movie and a vampire movie. I also have the pilot for The Tommy Wiseau Show and of course The House That Drips Blood On Alex, which we are hoping to make a sequel. ~ Tommy Wiseau
Sitcom quotes by Tommy Wiseau
The leap of faith is this: You have to believe, or at least pretend you believe until you really believe it, that you are strong enough to take life face on. Eating disorders, on any level, are a crutch. They are also an addiction and illness, but there is no question at all that they are quite simply a way of avoiding the banal, daily, itchy pain of life. Eating disorders provide a little drama, they feed into the desire for constant excitement, everything becomes life-or-death, everything is terribly grand and crashing, very Sturm and Drang. And they are distracting. You don't have to think about any of the nasty minutiae of the real world, you don't get caught up in that awful boring thing called regular life, with its bills and its breakups and its dishes and laundry and groceries and arguments over whose turn it is to change the litter box and bedtimes and bad sex and all that, because you are having a real drama, not a sitcom but a GRAND EPIC, all by yourself, and why would you bother with those foolish mortals when you could spend hours and hours with the mirror, when you are having the most interesting sado-machistic affair with your own image? ~ Marya Hornbacher
Sitcom quotes by Marya Hornbacher
People don't realize that doing a horror movie is hard work. You're out there all day screaming your lungs out, breathing in toxic make-up fumes, rolling around in the dirt, getting your eyebrows burned off - it's not like doing a sitcom. ~ Clint Howard
Sitcom quotes by Clint Howard
My wife, Katey Sagal, has transformed herself from a sitcom cartoon to a dramatic powerhouse. ~ Kurt Sutter
Sitcom quotes by Kurt Sutter
A lot of the traditional sitcom stuff I did - I think I could have gone that route when I was younger as a staff writer, and I just didn't want to. ~ Brian Posehn
Sitcom quotes by Brian Posehn
I have to warn you, I'm not just some sitcom guy. I'm now an author. ~ Bob Newhart
Sitcom quotes by Bob Newhart
It used to be that if you were on a sitcom you couldn't get work in film because it was so different. Now it's almost like you have to be on TV to do other film work. ~ Mayim Bialik
Sitcom quotes by Mayim Bialik
The great thing about a sitcom is that you're in front of a live audience, so you really get in touch with what audience reaction is, but also there are lots of elements of film that you're dealing with, and there's kind of a great boot camp or graduate school mentality to it, because you're going to suck. ~ Topher Grace
Sitcom quotes by Topher Grace
I got into stand-up to get on a sitcom. ~ David Spade
Sitcom quotes by David Spade
I really loved when I started doing '70s Show,' though I had never acted before, so it was a great training ground being on a sitcom. ~ Topher Grace
Sitcom quotes by Topher Grace
I grew up doing sitcoms and theater and even playing with the Beach Boys, where you're programmed to perform, your body gets into a rhythm and you know it has to perform. ~ John Stamos
Sitcom quotes by John Stamos
A lot of people say the sitcom is dead. I think they're right to some extent, in that the shows they're putting out are all the same. ~ Ben Savage
Sitcom quotes by Ben Savage
Hot damn, Wip. We've got a stone-cold fox on our hands."
Willa flipped Ginger the bird without looking away from the full-length mirror. "This touching family sitcom moment brought to you by the letters F and U. ~ Tessa Bailey
Sitcom quotes by Tessa Bailey
The whole experience of doing a sitcom is ... Telling jokes with such precision is really exciting, but it's also terrifying. ~ Lea Thompson
Sitcom quotes by Lea Thompson
My desire for my own sitcom began as a little girl - I spent hours lying on my belly on the shag carpeting getting lost in the world of the '70s sitcom. All I wanted to do was run away to the Brady house, The Partridge Family bus; even the project on 'Good Times' seemed better than Clark, NJ. ~ Judy Gold
Sitcom quotes by Judy Gold
Especially on television, it's not so much a patriarchy; it always seems that there's a smart, strong woman calling the shots, and her doofus husband. In the sitcom world, it's almost a cliche that the women have the common sense, going back to 'The Honeymooners.' ~ Jake Weber
Sitcom quotes by Jake Weber
The characters are not allowed to change if you write a sitcom; they're not allowed to learn anything. There's all these sorts of rules, and you go, 'I just want to be able to write one character and then leave that behind.' Also, as a performer, and I may regret saying this, but it would be my own personal hell to be trapped in the sitcom. ~ Alice Lowe
Sitcom quotes by Alice Lowe
Politics is not a picture on a wall or a television sitcom that you can decide you don't much care for. ~ Molly Ivins
Sitcom quotes by Molly Ivins
I always wanted to be on a sitcom. ~ Victoria Jackson
Sitcom quotes by Victoria Jackson
I'm more inclined to linger in the science pages of 'The Week' magazine. But my principle obsessions are still watching sitcoms and football. ~ Alan Davies
Sitcom quotes by Alan Davies
I think I'm sort of locked into the sitcom genre. ~ Jason Marsden
Sitcom quotes by Jason Marsden
I can remember when I was a baby and my mother was there watching the show. I went and bought 100 episodes and watched them. I respect it so much that the sitcom itself and Ed Norton; I'm not playing Ed Norton but my version of it, cause I'm a black man. ~ Mike Epps
Sitcom quotes by Mike Epps
Some writers and producers are currently writing a sitcom for me, so we'll see what happens there. I'm somewhat reluctant to talk about some of the upcoming projects that I'm working on; I've a lot of stuff on the go, including five pictures that I'm looking at producing. ~ Gil Gerard
Sitcom quotes by Gil Gerard
Sitcom food is by far the tastiest of all showbiz food. ~ Ken Jeong
Sitcom quotes by Ken Jeong
The entertainment business is such a strange, crazy perception business that you're either given way too much respect, like people saying, "You should be the head of the sitcom!" Or you're given no respect, where they're like, "You should audition to be the garbage man that lives four houses down." ~ Jim Gaffigan
Sitcom quotes by Jim Gaffigan
We've been casual for the past week because of how fast things were moving, and I wanted to slow down and let you focus on your family. But now that we've watched a sitcom together, this needs to move to the next level. ~ Dannika Dark
Sitcom quotes by Dannika Dark
The Simpsons was pretty experimental at the time, but it attracted a lot of sitcom writers that felt confined by the limitations of live-action sitcoms in the '80s. ~ Eric Andre
Sitcom quotes by Eric Andre
Reviews are written by people who don't understand the process of sitcom. I don't read reviews of anything. I go by word of mouth. ~ Miranda Hart
Sitcom quotes by Miranda Hart
When I first started I was always known as The Girl on the Sitcom with the Funny Voice. ~ Julie Benz
Sitcom quotes by Julie Benz
I would never turn down a movie, but at the same time, but my ideal job would be a half-hour sitcom. ~ Mark Indelicato
Sitcom quotes by Mark Indelicato
When 'Family Guy' started, we wanted to make it more like a sitcom. And there was very little music. ~ Seth MacFarlane
Sitcom quotes by Seth MacFarlane
More teenagers go to movies or rent a tape of a movie than sit down and watch sitcoms on television. ~ Mindy Cohn
Sitcom quotes by Mindy Cohn
Nobody's ever kept their sitcom character going after the show's off the air. ~ Megan Mullally
Sitcom quotes by Megan Mullally
The Arboretum's overgrown grass rustled. The branches of an apple tree shook as though an animal had jumped from one to the next. A wind slid up my thighs, in the night, under my short nightgown. Crickets and cicadas made a sound like distant laughing children, the laugh track to a sitcom that didn't end. It was like the grass was full of tiny giggling babies. So beautiful, and creepy. ~ Monica Drake
Sitcom quotes by Monica Drake
I never had any interest in sitcoms or motion pictures or anything like that. ~ Norm MacDonald
Sitcom quotes by Norm MacDonald
Nothing's as easy as it is on a sitcom. Issues that we take care of in 20 minutes on the show can stretch out over years in real families. ~ Tim Allen
Sitcom quotes by Tim Allen
Sometimes I think of my life as a sitcom. But in reality, life is more than a series of memorable events that bring out the Meg Ryan in us. Life happens in the gaps between scenes. We live in the fade-to-blacks. ~ Dorothy Angle
Sitcom quotes by Dorothy Angle
The time to start worrying about the consequences of our editorial decisions was before we raised a generation of people who get all of their information from television, and who believe that the solution to every problem is simple enough that you can find it before the 21 minutes of the sitcom are over. Or ~ Matt Taibbi
Sitcom quotes by Matt Taibbi
I am pleased to say that as I get older, I get less and less like the sitcom 'Miranda.' She is really a clown character, a heightened version of the 20-something me. ~ Miranda Hart
Sitcom quotes by Miranda Hart
We were the daughters of the post-World War II American dream, the daughters of those idealized fifties sitcom families in which father knew best and mother knew her place and a kind of disappointment, and tense, unspoken sexuality rattled around like ice cubes in their nightly cocktails. ~ Anne Taylor Fleming
Sitcom quotes by Anne Taylor Fleming
I think there are still words you can't use in family entertainment that you can use in a sitcom today. ~ Bob Newhart
Sitcom quotes by Bob Newhart
Why, on my mother's birthday, am I thinking about 'Father Knows Best?' At our house, mother knew best at least as often as father did, but then the title of the old sitcom, a homogenized portrait of American family life, was meant to be slightly sardonic. ~ Tom Shales
Sitcom quotes by Tom Shales
I didn't want to do the sitcom thing, but I didn't know what else to do. ~ William Shatner
Sitcom quotes by William Shatner
