Donna Brazile Quotes

I've never been on a television show as a regular before.

I recurred on 'Grey's Anatomy' for three years, and at the same time, I recurred for eight episodes on 'Rescue Me'. And I'd recurred for nine episodes on 'The Practice'. Frankly, the guest star is often the most compelling character.

I do prime time network shows like 'Blue Bloods.' I've done 'Fringe,' I've done 'The Good Wife,' done a lot of 'The Mentalist.'

I got my feet wet in a couple of shows. I did a cameo on my favorite show, 'The Vampire Diaries.' And I guest starred on a show called 'Kickin' It' on Disney.

I was blessed with a good character in 'Hollyoaks,' and I cut my teeth in 'Brookside' as well.

I would love to appear in 'Scandal,' something like that, or 'Grey's Anatomy' because I think they're incredible.

People very rarely know my real name but recognise me as characters from my shows, such as 'Last Tango In Halifax.'

Yeah, I don't think I'm gonna do anymore TV shows.

I acted in millions of TV shows.

I think the people who probably have it the best are the people on cable like on 'Entourage', 'the Sopranos', etc. who have 13 episodes per season and breaks to do films and theatre. I think that's the most ideal life.

It's bad enough that I'm an actress that wants to be recognized as an actress. Instead, I am known for doing game shows.

Look, at the same time that I don't want to be a celebrity, I understand that when you make movies you put yourself out in the public eye. I'd be a baby and a fool to be like, 'Why are there cameras taking pictures of me?' when I'm on a billboard for a movie. I think that's a very absurd concept.

TV showrunners have become known entities to people who watch television in the way that movie directors have been known to filmgoers for a long time. When I started out as a writer and producer in television, I never had the slightest expectation that fame would be part of the job.

I was Pippa on 'Home And Away' for nearly a decade.

While I was doing 'Desperate Housewives,' I actually watched it from the beginning.

With network, shows are pulled half the time after three episodes whether they're good or they're not good. It's a numbers game. With cable, they can take a lot more liberties.

I don't care if I never do another TV show in my life.

I was born on TV, meaning that's where I caught my break. So that's where I always have to be smart and revisit that medium as much as I can.

TV's been very kind to me.

Being on a TV show is a really good gig for an actor.

In America, people come up and to me, and I keep thinking they're going to say, 'Oh, I loved you on 'ER.'' Now it's, 'Oh, I love you on 'Doctor Who.''

I did a few TV shows in Germany, lots of media.
