NBC late-show hosts aren't the only ones with something to say this week to the people of Earth.
A recent selection of quotable quotes from visitors to the Television Critics Association's winter meetings in Pasadena:
“Don’t people have GPS? I think we can find these people.”
-- ABC entertainment president Stephen McPherson, recalling his early reaction to the premise of "Lost"
“Have you any other machinery-based shows?”
-- Rick Porter, of zap2it.com, of McPherson, who’d just jokingly defended “Conveyor Belt of Love”
“In terms of conveyor-belt shows, we are taking pitches actively.”
-- McPherson
"What’s amazing is you realize how fickle your political affiliation is. I’m a lifelong Democrat, but when I first heard that they were considering Feb. 2, I was like, 'That mother------.'"
-- "Lost" co-creator Damon Lindelof, talking about the scheduling of President Obama's State of the Union address, which won't, after all, be pre-empting the Season 6 premiere.
"I thought, 'This would be a really great time to die.'"
-- Sir Patrick Stewart, star of "Macbeth" on PBS' "Great Performances," about his first viewing of a "reality" TV show
