really found a great work ethic in eep other and found the team pooling the resources worked better than splitting the resources up. having you around was great. he was like what do you think, tom? and i used you as well. when i did my solo show i said genie can you come and give me notes? you are a good director and you have a good eye for comedy. i used you as well. i know how well you work in the world of comedy. so let's get to the tv show. the jim gafigan show is on tv land and you are the executive producer and you could -- could- -- co-wrote the scripts. >> shooy is great. she is great. >> let me ask you. is it weird? do you think it is weird for ashley? if she was here would it be strange to be acting as genie when genie is right there with headphones on? >> you would think that, but we worked out a really good team thing.
