ADD QUOTES-
[On what he feels his most important accomplishment is] Chuck Barris: Well you know, that's an interesting question. I've never won any awards, I've never won Grammys or Emmys or whatever. My book was #7. My record was #2. My television programs never got an Emmy. So I'm torn between the book I wrote which was a bestseller, and I love writing, and "Palisades Park," which was the first thing I ever created that was commercially successful. I would hear it on the radio in the car I would pull over to the side of the road I was so excited. Or The Dating Game which was my first television program. Those were my babies, so those are the ones I like.
