Eric McCormack Quotes

I just love doing sitcoms. I'd be in them till I was gray if they'd have me.

I enjoy both comedy and drama, and have had memorable experiences in both film and T.V.

I did a 'Golden Girls' once, which shot in front of an audience, and that went well. I had a good time. But I need an audience, for comedy at least.

I got into stand-up to get on a sitcom.

I was on 'Murder She Wrote' with Angela Lansbury. She was fantastic... she was lovely to everyone, she was always on time, prepared. Whereas when I worked with Bob Hope, he didn't know his lines. He had to have these huge big cards... he hardly said two words to me all day.

I had the most fun on '3rd Rock'. It was a great show to work on.

People are meant to be certain places, and I think I'm meant to be on a sound stage doing situation comedy.

I love '30 Rock' because Tina Fey allows me to fly over the cuckoo nest once a week.

I would love to do a comedy, but comedy probably in the sense of a dark comedy like 'Californication,' that sort of thing. Yeah, sure, I think I'm funny.

In Australia, I wrote lots of little plays and put them on, and then I worked on a few different TV shows, like the Australian equivalent of 'SNL.' I would write and perform all of my characters.

On 'Sunny,' we're not trying to be a family show. We're literally trying to make the funniest show possible.

I was on 'That '70s Show' as the sexy nurse. I like that show, but I hated my character. I was like, 'I will never do anything like this again in my life. I feel crazy.'

I don't know why people feel that I am only interested in films, but I very much want to do fiction. My only prerequisite is a good role, something which satisfies the actor in me. If I get a good banner and a good channel, I would definitely do a daily soap.
