On New Shows

I firmly believe any show I like, that is smart and funny, will be cancelled after the first season. - Pattie Lee

I don't really trust new shows all that much. I've been burned too much by the sizzle, and there's hardly ever enough steak.
I'll wait to see if it gets a few seasons under it and then jump in. - Bill Larson

On Pilots

Well, the way they make shows is they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows. Some pilots get selected to become television programs. Some don't, become nothing. She starred in one of the ones that became nothing.
- Jules Winnfield, Pulp Fiction

On 4K

There really REALLY is a difference in quality. Don't tell me "oh I can't tell from old timey quality and 4K." That's bullshit. So get a GOOD tv and you will see you shows in an all new way. I have spoken. - Bill Larson

On Pay Streaming Apps

We are, very quickly, getting to the point of stupid. I'm not trying to pay for EVERY streaming app. Screw that! I used to have this requirement when buying an LP or cassette (hey...don't make fun of my age)...my requirement was at least three songs on an album to buy it with my hard-earned money. I think the same should apply to streaming apps. - Bill Larson

Cutting the cord is impossible. Either you pay one place for all your content or you pay 80 places. Either way it's going to cost you the same amount. I refuse to pay for a streaming app from a channel I get for free even without cable. I get that quality content has value, but that streaming service better offer me an assload of quality content. Not tired old stuff that's in syndication. - Pattie Lee

On Helen Mirren

I love Helen Mirren! She's always just so... naked. It's like her breasts are afraid of the dark. When a Helen Mirren film comes on the telly, that's like a guarantee. Her name says, "OK boys, you'd better watch this one with your curtains shut." - Jeff Murdock, Coupling BBC

On Networks, Providers, and Blackouts

I'm tired of all these networks blaming the cable and dish providers for us, the customers, losing access to their channel. THEY are the ones who chose to make their network go black, not Comcast, not Dish Network. Then these fools expect us to call our provider and complain.  Those network yahoos want US to PAY MORE! Don't you get it? The providers are trying to keep prices down. Don't fall for the network's crap. Call THEM and complain when they go dark. Don't let them take more of your money. - Pattie Lee
