>>> WE’RE BACK WITH TELEVISION LEGEND, TED DANSON, HE’S BEEN A
BUSY GUY THESE PAST FEW YEARS,
STARRING AS MICHAEL, THE DEMON
TURNED FRIEND IN "THE FOOD
PLACE" THE HIT SHOW IS IN ITS
FOURTH AND FINAL SEASON, STILL A
LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE AS
MICHAEL AND HIS TEAM SAVE
HUMANITY.
HUMANITY. MICHAEL IS HAVING A HARD TIME
FIGURING OUT THE HUMAN THING.
>> I DON’T HAVE A GRIP ON THE
HUMAN EMOTIONAL SPECTRUM.
YOU ARE HAPPY WHEN YOU SHOULD BE
SAID, AND ANGRY WHEN YOU SHOULD
BE HAPPY, AND TEXTING WHEN YOU
SHOULD BE DRIVING, WHICH IS NOT
AN EMOTION I KNOW, BUT IT’S
INSANE.
INSANE. THE POINT IS IN THIS CASE, EVEN
IF IT’S NOT RATIONAL, YOU’RE
ALLOWED TO FEEL A LITTLE ANGRY.
LET YOURSELF OFF THE HOOK.
PROCESS IT AND WORK YOUR WAY
THROUGH IT, AND GET YOUR SHIRT
TOGETHER.
TOGETHER. >> CAN WE BE A LITTLE ANGRY AND
PROCESS THE FACT THAT THIS SHOW
IS ENDING.
IS ENDING. CARSON WAS JUST OUTRAGED OVER
HERE GOING WHY, WHY DOES IT HAVE
TO END.
TO END. >> IT WAS SURPRISING WHEN WE ALL
HEARD IT.
HEARD IT. USUALLY THE NETWORK CANCELS YOU
AT THE LAST SECOND WHEN YOU
THOUGHT YOU WERE COMING BACK.
THIS CASE, MIKE SURE, VERY
ELEGANTLY SAID HE WAS IN THE
WRITERS ROOM.
WRITERS ROOM. THEY WERE STARTING TO WRITE THE
LAST SEASON, AND THEY REALIZED
THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD THEIR
STORY BY THE END OF THAT SEASON,
AND THIS IS HOW THE UNIVERSE
WORKS, WE THINK, AND TO PAD IT
WOULD BE WRONG.
BUT WHAT WAS LOVELY FOR THE CAST
IS WE GOT TO SAY GOOD-BYE TO
EACH OTHER FOR A WHOLE SEASON,
AND RELISH BEING TOGETHER
BECAUSE WE KNEW IT WAS COMING TO
AN END.
AN END. >> AND DID YOU KIND OF FEEL THAT
WAY, WE WERE LOOKING AT EACH
OTHER LIKE WIPING THE TEARS.
>> IT GOT VERY CONFUSING, THE
CHARACTERS WERE SAD ABOUT THINGS
SOMETIMES, AND SO WERE WE.
YOU COULDN’T DENY IT.
>> I KNOW YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO
TELL US HOW IT ALL ENDS.
>> I’LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING.
>> JUST GO SPILL IT.
DO YOU THINK IT’S A GOOD
RESOLUTION, ARE WE GOING TO BE
IN A GOOD PLACE ABOUT IT?
>> YES, YOU WILL.
>> I WISH WE WERE TALKING AFTER
YOU HAD SEEN THE ENTIRE SEASON.
IT’S SO SATISFYING, EMOTIONALLY,
AND PHILOSOPHICALLY.
AND PHILOSOPHICALLY. PART OF YOU THINKS, YES, IT MAY
NOT BE THAT WAY, WHO KNOWS.
BUT IT SHOULD BE.
>> I HEARD YOU TEARED UP WHEN
YOU FIRST READ THE SCRIPT.
>> WE ALL DID.
IT WAS JUST MIKE SHORE, REALLY A
WONDERFUL WRITER AND HIS WRITERS
THAT HE ASSEMBLED AROUND HIM.
IT’S ABOUT DECENCY, THERE ARE
CONSEQUENCES FOR OUR ACTIONS.
>> IT’S KIND OF A FEAT TO PULL
OFF, A SHOW THAT’S FUNNY BUT
ALSO THOUGHT PROVOKING.
>> WELL, WITH THAT, YOU NEED TO
SPRINKLE 9-YEAR-OLD FART HUMOR
AND IT GOES DOWN.
>> IT’S A LITTLE PALETTE
CLEANSER.
CLEANSER. >> I SAW ON TWITTER THAT YOU DO
YOUR OWN STUNTS, I THINK WE HAVE
VIDEO.
VIDEO. >> REALLY.
>> REALLY. >> I THINK WE CAN ROLL THE STUNT
VIDEO.
VIDEO. OH, THEY’RE PULLING IT.
>> THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT ME.
>> NO, THAT WASN’T A STUNT.
THAT WAS ACTUALLY A MISTAKE.
I JUST FELL.
>> YOU JUST FELL, AND YOU’RE
LIKE TOM CRUISE, LIKE MISSION
IMPOSSIBLE RIGHT THERE.
>> I THINK THEY’RE JUST SHOWING
IT ON A CIRCULAR CLIP THERE,
BECAUSE I ONLY DID IT ONCE.
>> YOU DID IT ONE TIME, BUT YOU
NAILED IT.
NAILED IT. YOU’RE THAT GOOD.
YOU ARE A LEGEND.
>> SOON TO BE A NATIONAL
TREASURE.
TREASURE. >> I THINK YOU ARE A NATIONAL
TREASURE.
TREASURE. LET’S UPGRADE YOU RIGHT NOW.
>> A FEW MORE YEARS.
>> DO YOU THINK IT’S ICON, THEN
LEGEND, THEN NATIONAL TREASURE.
>> YES, I DO.
>> BUT YOU’RE ALSO AMERICA’S
SWEETHEART.
SWEETHEART. >> NOT SO MUCH.
>> YEAH, YOU ARE.
>> NO, YOU ARE.
>> I DON’T THINK GUYS ARE
AMERICA’S SWEETHEART.
AMERICA’S SWEETHEART. >> I MEANT THAT AS A COMPLIMENT,
THOUGH.
THOUGH. YOU’RE LIKE AMERICA’S, WHAT
WOULD BE A GOOD ONE, WHAT’S THE
EQUIVALENT.
EQUIVALENT. >> BUFF DUDE.
>> EXACTLY.
>> EXACTLY. STUD, JUST GREAT, ALL AROUND
FABULOUS GUY.
FABULOUS GUY. HOW’S MARY, YOUR LOVELY WIFE.
