Quotes

Chuck Barris: "my name is Charles Prescott Barris. I have written pop songs; I have been a television producer. I am responsible for polluting the airwaves with mindnumbing, puerile entertainment. In addition: I have murdered 33 human beings. [types on a typewriter: 'I am damned to hell.']"

Dick Clark: "[first] I wouldn't want to live his life, because he hasn't been happy all of his life. All I think is if you can find work; stay healthy; find somebody to share it with; you're the ultimate success. He's had some of the pieces of the puzzle, but not all of them."

Chuck Barris: "When you are young: your potential is infinite - You might do anything, really. You might be Einstein; You might be DiMaggio. Then you get to an age where what you might be gives way to what you have been. You weren't Einstein; You weren't anything. That's a bad moment."

Chuck Barris: "[last] I came up with a new game-show idea recently - it's called 'The Old Game'. You got three old guys with loaded guns onstage; They look back at their lives, see who they were, what they accomplished, how close they came to realizing their dreams. The winner is the one who doesn't blow his brains out; He gets a refrigerator."
