  • Quotes
    I think I have a very good eye for talent, so when I saw the screen test with Danny [Bonaduce], even though he wasn't what I had envisioned for the role, it was obvious that he had the talent. It's very rare to find a kid that age who has that innate comedy timing. He had it and it just came off the screen.
