“I was a big Fred Flintstone fan.”
“Obviously I'm a big fan of 'South Park', but it gets tiring at times when there's so much of it.”

“Science has become politicized, and that's an embarrassment.”
“I wrote on a show called Johnny Bravo when I was at Hanna-Barbera.”
“I have a car that I like - an Aston Martin - for Sunday drives in the country.”
“The trend today is vampires, zombies, angels, all the stuff that puts me right to sleep. It's too bad because it's so much less interesting than the diversity of stories you can tell with science.”
“I was a huge 'Star Trek' fan. I loved the 'Twilight Zone' growing up. In the future, I hope to create some thoughtful, sci-fi drama.”
“The Simpsons are ugly-looking, and they should be. That's what works. That's one of the things that's funny.”
“The good thing about Broadway is that you don't have to worry about an airdate. It gets done when it gets done.”

“I still do a lot of drawing on a daily basis.”
“I'm wide open to getting married, but actors are not easy people to date. You end up sharing that person with this other mistress that is their career. I very much like the traditional courtship method of making a date. That's what they do in normal places, but Hollywood's not normal.”
