1. Nonsense, market saturation and competition means there’s more content and less people watching any one thing. You have to be more talented today to stand out.

2. Everyone always thinks they had it the hardest, it was the 80’s and this dude could have been easily replaced with any umber of people.

   Don’t get me wrong, guys a good actor and I never see him in the media acting a fool but his statement is untrue.

3. I forget where I read it, but there is basically social psychology concept that each generation thinks they had it harder and the newer generation has it easy or is lazy.

4. They had to walk up hill both ways

5. Puhleese! I like the dude but did he watch 80’s sitcoms?

6. Talented and related to someone famous or access to famous people.

7. Is that the secret to your success?

8. Mr. Fox, did you clomp on purpose?

9. “I think I’ll make a comeback.” “Here, let me say some dumb stuff.”

10. You had to wear Nikes and pretend to play guitar!

11. Eric Stoltz says otherwise
