“Cold Case Files and similar shows do bang up business, which points to a certain thirst for details in the viewership, but it seems like all the news chat shows continue to force the myth that Americans can’t stand detail and have no interest in an idea that can’t fit on a bumper sticker.” IdeasShowsSeemsCertainForceInterestCasesColdFitNewsDetailsMythThirstBangsFilesBumperStickerBumper StickerCold Case Author:Hal Sparks

“That's a big responsibility, and the details obsess me. And, also, I no longer feel I have to do the Tonight Show every time I open my mouth. Twenty years ago, I told myself I'd rather direct than act, and it's taken me this long. You lose your passion in acting. You make too many mistakes. Maybe that's why I make so many movies; if you don't like this one, another one's opening on Tuesday. But then I spent six months of my life on 'At Long Last Love,' a picture nobody saw. I enjoyed making it, I learned from it, I grew, but that's too much time out of my life.” IfsFeelsYearsLongShowsBigsLastsPassionLosesActingMistakeResponsibilityTakenSawsToo MuchGrewMonthsSixMouthsYears AgoDirectTwentiesDetailsOpeningEnjoyedTonightSix MonthsTuesdayBig Responsibility Author:Burt Reynolds

“It's odd how a person always arouses admiration for his moral qualities among the relatives of another with whom he has sexual relations.
