In television, the audience has to be comfortable with you, and I've managed to prove that I can be in American homes to some degree, and not necessarily where everyone knows me, either.
Being on TV is kind of the best job in the world.
Then as I was wrestling as Terry Boulder. I was on a talk show with Lou Ferrigno, and I was actually bigger than he was! I went back to the dressing room that night and all of the wrestlers go 'Oh my God you're bigger than the hulk on TV' so they started calling me Terry 'The Hulk' Boulder.
I would love to play Simon Cowell in a movie - heck, I would love it. It would be my dream role.
It never crossed my mind that one day I'm gonna be big and famous and have my own TV show, you know?
You can't do anything else once you do game shows. You have no career.
People think of you differently if you've been in their homes. They think they own you because they watched you while they were eating dinner, or they can turn you up or down, or even freeze you.
I don't have anything against Jimmy Fallon. I love Jimmy Fallon. He's my dude.
My fame is due to broadcast television.
I once sat next to Jim from Wild Kingdom on a flight from Atlanta. I find mentioning that opens a lot of doors.
I am a chef who happens to appear on the telly, that's it.
Walter Cronkite was a personally decent and convivial man, who literally couldn't kill a fly, was kind to his children, generally helpful to juniors, authentically curious about the news, and, in his time, an energetic reporter.
CBS is proud to have been the home of David Letterman since 1993. He is truly one of the great talents of our time, and we hope things work out.
I'm not besotted with the notion of being on CNN to the point that I'm going to suddenly morph into Anderson Cooper or Christiane Amanpour. I'm not a foreign correspondent.
I am a big 'Ellen' fan. I have been one for quite a long time now. I used to do the local news talk shows with her in San Francisco, when we were both still kids.
I don't want to be a reality TV star - that's not for me.
I was a big Jay Leno fan, so I was sorry to see him go. But my number one person that I watch, she's not late night, but in terms of the comedian genre, is Ellen DeGeneres - love her.
Katie Couric is one of my favorite people.
If I got into TV, I'd want to be the best.
It's Charles Barkley. He's a personality. I don't count him as a journalist.
I was a huge fan of Tom Snyder.
I met Rachel Riley from 'Countdown' once.
It would be a bloody tough call to do 'Top Gear' without Jeremy. That would be a bit of a daft idea.
I have to be honest with you: I'm a huge fan of Conan O'Brien.
Most people will pay tribute to Anthony Bourdain as a chef, as the author of 'Kitchen Confidential,' and as the host of several food and travel shows - most recently, 'Parts Unknown' on CNN.
