Emotionally, shows like 'Cheers' and 'Taxi' were classic sitcoms when I was growing up.

When you watch the sitcoms that were the big hits when I was growing up, TV was still just TV. It was allowed to just be TV. There were three channels that were competing for the whole family and you couldn't take your business elsewhere.

Well, when I was growing up it was Ozzie and Harriet on TV - nobody's parents were like that.

Growing up, there were no families on TV that looked like mine.

Mariah and Whitney Houston were my goddesses growing up.

We definitely weren't poor growing up, but we weren't rich.
