Camera Quotes
What's great about working on a sitcom is that I spend so much time with people who are in other fields as well, such as writing, directing, and/or camera operating. Being on set is like being on a playground. I go from one thing to the next, and I've learned so much and hope to continue learning.

Believable Quotes
ABC's intelligently hilarious sitcom 'Modern Family' depicts a gay-male marriage in which both partners are refreshingly dimensional, believable human beings. The writers dare to make them flawed and thus fully delineated, but they're not flawed in the silly, stereotypical ways that once dominated such portrayals.

Began Quotes
My desire for my own sitcom began as a little girl - I spent hours lying on my belly on the shag carpeting getting lost in the world of the '70s sitcom. All I wanted to do was run away to the Brady house, The Partridge Family bus; even the project on 'Good Times' seemed better than Clark, NJ.

Crappy Quotes
I also did some really crappy TV, like 'Beverly Hills 90210' and 'Jag,' 'The Sentinel' and 'Viper,' ... My very first job was on an NBC sitcom called 'Brotherly Love' starring Joey Lawrence and his brothers. I was terrified. I think I got the job because I'm short enough. I'm five feet five inches and he wears lifts in his shoes.

Both Quotes
Television sitcom means a little play each week in front of a live audience. On film, you might spend all day on one scene, doing it from different angles, and they can be more interesting sometimes due to the script, or nature of the project. So I enjoy both mediums for different reasons.

America Quotes
A celebrity has just as much right to speak out as people who hold real jobs. This is America, after all, and you should not be precluded from voicing your opinions just because you sing songs, mouth other peoples' words on a sitcom or, for that matter, spin a giant multi-colored wheel on a game show.

Audience Quotes
Every week we have 300 people who line up to see us live. Part of the kick of a sitcom is it is in front of an audience. It is just a small audience every week. This time the audience will be America. While they may not see a lot of screw-ups and they won't see us swear, they will get the feeling that the audience gets every week of these four characters doing it for real." ()

Confusion Quotes
I do feel that there is a little confusion in people's minds between the real me and sitcom Miranda. I am pleased that people identify with the character, but I think they want me to be her and are disappointed that the real Miranda doesn't actually fall into graves or be that rubbish at life.

Friends Or Friendship Quotes
Comedic locations are often within families or within the manufactured families of a group of friends. It's significantly more difficult to make a sitcom that has broad sociological touch points. The same dynamic plays out on the big screen. You can have a constituency for 'Monster-in-Law' and 'Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle,' but never the two shall meet.

Audience Quotes
The great thing about a sitcom is that you're in front of a live audience, so you really get in touch with what audience reaction is, but also there are lots of elements of film that you're dealing with, and there's kind of a great boot camp or graduate school mentality to it, because you're going to suck.
