I do love being on television and in peoples' homes. I'm not an actor, so there is a connection that's real.
I've known Emeril for more than 20 years from when I featured him on 'Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous' from his days at Commander's Palace in New Orleans and from when I helped start the Food Network where he subsequently hosted an amazing 2,000-plus shows.
I've been very lucky, this is my 30th year on TV.
Screw being a singer! I wanna be the voice of my generation with my talk show.
I never imagined being on television.
I always wanted to be an anchorman, but after college I wound up working behind the scenes at CBS News for 10 years.
In 1985, I was the host of a talk show, 'Hot Properties on Lifetime.' Hulk Hogan was on the show. He put me in a headlock and rendered me unconscious and let me fall to the ground. I split my head open and got nine stitches - and this was on live TV.
I've now done virtually everything there is to do in TV presenting: I've done sport shows, comedy shows, and I'm now doing music, which is great for me.
There is something fantastically post-modern about David Frost.
Being a 'Blue Peter' presenter is not well paid.
I'm Kevin Nealon, and that's news to me.
I became popular as Bua because of 'Comedy Nights with Kapil.'
The news anchor is exactly that - an anchor, a center, a focus.
I'm so privileged to sit where Diane Sawyer and Peter Jennings sat.
I hope to do the 'Letterman' show, 'Leno,' all that.
I've been a fan of 'Countdown' for as long as I can remember, and this is a dream job.
I hired Tina Fey for 'SNL,' which was certainly a good match. She took off right away there.
I wouldn't imagine I would become famous in America for my talk shows.
I started off wanting very much to be a newscaster.
Anthony Bourdain is a legend and an inspiration for me.
Someone asked why I invited Jon Stewart to be the first guest on the 'Journal''s premiere in 2007. 'Because Mark Twain isn't available,' I answered. I was serious.
You know, I'm a television personality. It's not like I'm a famous hooker or something!
David Frost plucked me from the nightclubs.
After I had this idea to be Bill Nye the Science Guy, I wore straight ties the first couple times, and then I got this thing going and I started wearing bow ties.
You know what, I'd done an interview show when I was like 16 or 17. One of my first jobs. I did interviews for this television show in Toronto.
