Flying into a storm, even its outer edges, did not seem like a good idea to me. And this was no ordinary tempest.

I captured Tag Team, Intercontinental, Rookie Of The Year, King Of The Ring, everything but the heavyweight title.

It's absolutely surprising to me how well 'The State' has held up as far as people liking it and having fond memories of it, considering it's a sketch show. I think one of the things that helped its mystique is, it never came out on DVD or video or whatever.
To go from working with a group of people in a sketch-comedy show on a small network, where it was all about just creating funny stuff, to being on a network show, and the pressures of that, and getting to know the new people who were involved in it.
