But I've always believed that Christine Cagney shouldn't be played past a certain age.

The whole tone now of TV is under 35 and directed toward males.

Yeah, I've always been accused of having a sense of mischief and I'm very flattered that you say you can see it in the roles I play, because I think that's important, even if I do play intense characters, like especially Christine Cagney.

I'm not here to put down men, God love them and I'm married to one, but I do think they are more shallow.

Humor has been the balm of my life, but it's been reserved for those close to me, not part of the public Lana.

I really don't take any interest at all in contemporary comedy.

I think comedy is incredibly discriminated against. It is one of the most enjoyed yet most condescended art forms in the world. It's the same thing with hip-hop.

I remember doing a comedy show with Jim Carrey once, and he was out there with his foot behind his neck and rubbing his face with it.
