More From Megan Mullally

There is no means of testing which decision is better, because there is no basis for comparison. we live everything as it comes, without warning, like an actor going on cold. and what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself? that is why life is always like a sketch. no, "sketch" is not quite a word, because a sketch is an outline of something, the groundwork for a picture, whereas the sketch that is our life is a sketch for nothing, an outline with no picture.
Life Mean Decision
I think in the inception and creation of the characters, improv was the most important part for me, because i wanted to feel at home in those characters. i wanted to feel like i could commit to them. and so much of improv is saying yes and committing, so i think that's where the improv came in. even if i'm saying yes to the x across the room from me, or the tennis ball on a stick, i have to stay alive.
Home Character Thinking
Ladies like improv stilts, and i think men like improv giant cocks. but one of the great things about improv is that you get to play some roles you'd never get to play otherwise, you know, like the old italian pizza-maker who's passing on the business down to his son. you get to play it all when you improvise.

There wasn't a big tradition of comedy at dartmouth. more than that, there wasn't really anything artsy going on in hanover, or even in new hampshire. the cool thing about the school is that there's nothing for people to watch, so if you were to do a play or a sketch or an improv troupe, it was always packed. there's nowhere else for anyone to go. but there was no comedy.
School Play People
It is conceivable at least that a late generation, such as we presumably are, has particular need of the sketch, in order not to be strangled to death by inherited conceptions which preclude new births.... the sketch has direction, but no ending; the sketch as reflection of a view of life that is no longer conclusive, or is not yet conclusive.

Horror is like comedy. woody allen's comedy is going to be very different from ben stiller's comedy which is going to be different from adam sandler's comedy which is going to be different from judd apatow's comedy. they're all comedy, but they're all very different types and you can enjoy all of them. horror is the same way.

When i face the media, maybe i don't feel it now, here with you, because it's a different sort of interview, but when i face the media before or after the game, i feel it as part of the game.
Media Games Different
The new always carries with it the sense of violation, of sacrilege. what is dead is sacred; what is new, that is different, is evil, dangerous, or subversive.
