“I had a huge advantage when I started 50 years ago - my job was secure. I didn't have to promote myself.

Television toughens you up, and I like that, but I don't want it to toughen me up too much.” KnowsWayWantNeedsLittlesFilmBitsLinesToo MuchFocusTelevisionDisciplineLittle BitDiscoveryMarkPaceFactoriesRelaxedNurturing Author:Shannyn Sossamon
“I wasn't able to articulate it until after audience members gave feedback. And then, similarly, when we talked about the bromance being unique, I don't think Mark, Jay, and I really saw how special that aspect of that bromance was until our audience members sort of gave us feedback and let us know, "Hey, we've never seen a bromance like this before on television."” ThinkingKnowsAbleAudienceSawsSpecialTelevisionMembersUniqueAspectMarkHeyFeedbackBeing UniqueBromance Author:Steve Zissis
