'Fresh Off the Boat' will be syndicated. This show and these characters will live forever in the pantheon of classic family sitcoms.
It was the 60th anniversary of 'Face the Nation.' During his interview, President Obama said, 'Our country doesn't fear the future. We grab it.' Nothing says you grab the future like going on a 60-year-old show hosted by a 77-year-old-man to speak to a 90-year-old audience.
It's a blessing to be a part of television shows that were, to a certain extent, staples in a lot of people's lives and as far as their entertainment lives.
I gotta tell you, I do not envy whoever they try to put in David Letterman's chair. Folks those are some huge shoes to fill, and some really big pants.
Most shows get dumped by the networks, do a couple of years in syndication, then they're in the vault. 'Mission: Impossible' has never been off the screen.
Cable was a blessing for me. Thank god, I've done a show that's going to be iconic. So, if I screw up, it's all right because I already have something that's going to be iconic.
'The Dick Van Dyke Show' was a huge influence on me as a kid. It looked like a really fun job.
I'll always be grateful for what 'Doctor Who' has given me. I go to quite a few fan conventions. It's lovely to hang out with people you worked with so long ago. And, more than that, it's made me aware of the impact that television can have.
Of course, I have Gene Roddenberry to thank for the creation of Barclay.
'Days' has always been strong as an icon in TV history, and it's still going on strong and represents the genre of daytime drama so well. I'm proud to be a part of it.
I think the amazing thing about 'Twin Peaks' was that it completely changed television from that point forward.
Frasier will always hold a special place in my heart. He's a great character I Ioved playing, and he's still a wonderful part of my life. But he was a lot of work!
'Grey's' is just a machine. I wasn't really prepared for the epic nature of how popular the show is.
For me, 'The Brady Bunch' is just a part of the fabric of my career, but for a lot of people, that's it.
There is no such thing as going on to something bigger and better than 'M*A*S*H' because there is nothing bigger and better. I have done the best I can do, and been in the best I could be in on television - with the best people.
I get stopped in the street now and asked, What do I know you from?' My first reaction is to say All Creatures' and they say no. I say Doctors' and they say That's it' because they are so young. I have no complaints.
Hill Street Blues gave me an opportunity to work with an ensemble cast of people whose work I admired.
America gave me the great glory of coming into people's homes every week and allowed me to last as long as I have.
'The Dick Van Dyke Show' was my labor of love. When asked the best thing I ever did - that was it. I wrote it originally for myself.
By a twist of fate rather than anything approaching journalistic enterprise, I did the last major interview with Johnny Carson.
'Teletubbies' is a national institution, and it was a privilege to be asked to be their voice. It feels super surreal, but it does feel wonderful.
My admiration for 'Mary Tyler Moore' is very, very big because they went out on top.
Some shows just go away - and that's fine. They serve their purpose and their entertainment value, but there are shows that touch people in different ways and that they remember.
'EastEnders' has been wonderful to me and it's no secret that it changed my life all of those years ago. I'll be so sad to leave Peggy behind; she's such a wonderful character to play. I have had the pleasure of working with a marvelous cast and crew and have made many lasting good friends.
It is all down to 'The Two Ronnies.' Those years with Ronnie Barker were the spine of my career.
