No one in Hollywood really knows what a good idea is before a movie hits the screens. We only know if it's a good idea after it's done.
I don't like to guess. Just react. Some guys are guess hitters. I just could never do it. If you guess and guess wrong, you have no shot of hitting anything else.
Television is ultimately a business of failure. You try a lot of things, and most of it fails.
I recognize that Hollywood is not about seniority. Often it's not even a meritocracy. It's about what you did yesterday. You have a couple of misses, and suddenly it's impossible to find a hit. So the swings are gigantic. But I've always understood it as such, and navigated it as such.
In a war without aim, you tend not to aim. You close your eyes, close your heart. The consequences become hit or miss in the most literal sense.
I don't have any big secret about putting. Just hit at it. It's either going to miss or go in.
When we started, we knew the show was going to be hit or miss, and we needed to find a core audience to really make us survive. And I think we've been able to do that.
All human race would be wits. And millions miss, for one that hits.
Acting is the most fun. I like to do it and it's great that I can still do that, but you know, you don't really have a lot of control over things, so it's real hit or miss.
Unfortunately, I am not one of those comics where it's guaranteed that I hit it out of the park every time. You know, I am not completely reliable. It's always different, and it's a complete crapshoot whether I'm going to do well.
Believe it or not, I have about the same success rate as anyone else. Sometimes you hit, sometimes you miss.
You know, the music business is like the Lotto. Just put your numbers down and sometimes they hit, and sometimes they don't. There's just no rhyme or reason.
People say 'Limmy's Show' is kind of hit or miss, but I'd rather that than having something generally likable.
