After 'Raymond,' there was this big feeling of, 'What do I do next?'

The successful golfers - they're like astronauts or pilots. They have that demeanor that they can focus and stay within that one moment and nothing distracts them. That's not me.

I do still get intimidated by certain things.

You know, a TV show is a slow build.

I can't complain about my career, that's for sure.

My kids are growing up and it's hard to accept they are their own person and they're independent.

My career has been my craziest adventure.

I didn't want to have to follow 'Everybody Loves Raymond' with another sitcom. Let it be my sitcom legacy, and leave it at that.

I never want to give up stand-up. Because I still get a thrill out of it.
