>> Stephen: THE INITIAL PREMISE OF THE SHOW, THE SHOW,
YOU KNOW, GREW, WAS BOTH A POPULAR AND CRITICAL SUCCESS,
AND IT BROADENED WHAT IT WAS ABOUT BUT INITIALLY IT WAS ABOUT
A WOMAN WHO WAS THE GOOD WIFE OF A HUSBAND WHO HAD CHEATED, A
POLITICIAN WHO HAD CHEATED ON HER.
>> RIGHT, STATE'S ATTORNEY.
>> Stephen: AFTER LOOKING BACK SEVEN YEARS, DO YOU THINK THAT
IT'S TIME FOR A WOMAN TO BE A SLEAZE BALL AND A MAN TO STAND
NEXT TO HER?
DON'T YOU THINK WE'VE COME FAR ENOUGH AS A NATION THAT A MAN
WOULD HAVE TO STAND EMBARRASSED NEXT TO SOMEONE?
>> IT WOULD BE A MIRACLE.
WHEN WE FIRST STARTED, I GOT THE QUESTION WOULD THIS EVER HAPPEN
IF THE WOMAN WAS THE ONE WHO WAS THE POLITICIAN?
AND WHEN I STARTED THE SHOW, I WAS A NEW MOM AND WIFE AND DOING
14 HOURS A DAY, AND I LOOKED AND SAID, WOMEN DON'T HAVE TIME --
>> Stephen: DON'T HAVE TIME TO BE SLEAZE BALLS?
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE) WE'LL GET THERE SOME DAY, BABY.
>> I THINK IT WOULD BE A WONDERFUL THING TO SEE.
I DON'T THINK IT WOULD EVER HAPPEN.
WOMEN, WE'RE TOO SMART TO DO THAT.
>> Stephen: TOO SMART?
(APPLAUSE) NOT TOO NICE?
JUST TOO SMART TO GET CAUGHT?
>> AT LEAST TO DO IT AND GET CAUGHT.
I MEAN, YEAH, I DO BELIEVE THAT WOMEN ARE A LITTLE BIT ABOVE THE
LEVEL OF TAKING A PICTURE OF THINGS AND TWEETING THEM.
>> IT'S JUST S& SILLY, SO DUMB TO DO THAT THINKING YOU'RE NOT
GOING TO GET CAUGHT.
>> I AGREE.
>> Stephen: I DO AGREE.
