- That was the turning point in my career. I had done a comedy, That Girl, the first season, kind of a weird-ass character that didn't attract a lot of attention. It was okay in retrospect. When I've seen 'em in replays it wasn't bad, but it wasn't as colorful or as catchy as the Merle Jeeter character, which was supposed to be six episodes and then gone. But I was good in the part. The writing was very good, the people I worked with were excellent, and the character was just wonderful. Just a once-in-a-lifetime character... he was just the worst human being, Merle Jeeter. [Laughs.] That's kind of where it all started, as far as people's belief that I could do comedy, particularly that negative, caustic, cynical kind of guy. (en)
- That opened up the movies for me. The girls were so supportive of me, and included me in everything. They were on a whole different level than I was at the time, but they were very sensitive about that, and made sure that I was included in every publicity shot and tour. All three of them insisted, "Where's Dabney? Get him in here!" They're all three unique and wonderful ladies, all three of them. (en)
