The idea of Disneyland is a simple one. It will be a place for people to find happiness and knowledge.
I love San Francisco; it's very hard to compete with San Francisco when it comes to availability of product, but one thing you can't replace about Las Vegas or Miami is people are walking in the door and they want to have a good time.
People are much more loose if you are having fun. I had a basketball player who was really soft-spoken, and then we played Connect Four with him, and he really opened up!
Michael has a connection with children, just like Mickey Mouse does, and he brings happiness to them, and joy.
I love the anxiety, the pressure of the loud room full of yapping kids. But I'm a kid myself.
Working on 'Austin and Ally' has been an absolute dream! We literally have fun every single day! Whether it's scaring each other or singing together or just hanging out in each other's dressing rooms, the cast and I are super close! I feel really lucky to be with everyone on our set!
If an audience is loud and in a party mode, that's an audience that can absorb comedy.
Working with Sturges was like working with a guy who wanted to have a party all the time. He was very serious about his work, but in between shots, he was fun and we would play games.
I was born to a very large family, one of 7 kids. I grew up with carnivals and chaos all around me, so I can write anywhere.
I think what I want Disneyland to be most of all is a happy place...
I like to have fun with them. I like to toy with them a little bit. we're making television, after all. Right?
It's great to be able to just go with an idea and not have 10 people in a room telling me why I can't write in a huge mud slide at a school function with 50 kindergartners running around.
