  • You know all those young people watching Comedy Central love 'Frasier.'

  • Someone like Amy Poehler, I don't know, but I feel like I know her. I think everyone feels like they know her.

  • I've been watching 'The Cosby Show' and 'Roseanne' a lot right now, and those work so well because they're not, like, jokey comedies; they are coming from real characters. We want our show to be like that. A family show.

  • I'm so thankful for that struggling period. That time is really great where you have no idea what's going to happen.

  • I had a weirdly awesome high-school experience.

  • We just sort of thought a Web series would be a cool thing to be able to send to our parents to show them that we were, in fact, actually doing comedy.

  • Cereal when high is always a great option. I don't even have cereal for that reason.

  • Every show that comes out that's female driven is compared to the last female-driven show, as if it's taking over.

  • I ended up going to college for visual arts but moved up to New York after I graduated from college in 2006 and started going gung ho to the Upright Citizens Brigade, and I realized that that was what I was really interested in and what I really wanted to do.

  • I definitely relate so much to a lot of women in comedy, but I don't love segregating the genders. I'm just as influenced by male comedians as I am female comedians.

  • I feel like comedy had a boys'-club label when we were starting.

  • Women right now, we can't make mediocre [stuff]. Men can and do make tons of mediocre stuff, but I feel like women...

  • I used to not be into the fancy ones. I used to eat goo balls all the time.
