According to the Harris poll (January 2008), Hugh Laurie remained in fourth place in his second year on the list as America's favorite television personality.
(edit)
Hugh Laurie: (from his 2004 Golden Globe Awards acceptance speech) I am absolutely speechless. Seriously, I don't have a speech. People are falling all over themselves to send you free shoes and free cuff links and colonic irrigations for two. Nobody ever offers you a free acceptance speech. There just seems to be a gap in the market. I would love to be able to pull out a speech by Dolce & Gabbana.
(edit)
Hugh Laurie: (discussing Earth Week and environmental issues with Jay Leno on The Tonight Show, April 25, 2008) I have been instrumental in banning bottled water on the set. It hasn't gone that well with the crew... so I replaced it with tequila.
(edit)
Hugh Laurie: (discussing his gun training sessions for Street Kings) I desperately wanted to go. But I'm sort of a desk-bound bureaucrat who feels that gunplay on the streets is beneath him. I was wearing a holster with a gun, but I never got to touch it.
(edit)
Hugh Laurie: (regarding his role in Street Kings, Reuters - April 9, 2008) I hate to shatter any illusions about my place in the pecking order but very few actors, apart from Denzel Washington, get to choose from a big supermarket shelf of possibilities. The rest of us are trying to find things we can do, and I hadn't set out to find a noirish police thriller.
(edit)
Hugh Laurie: (responding to any feelings of guilt on how much he is paid, Times Online - March 29, 2008) Yes. It's absolutely preposterous. Entertainment seems to be inflating. It used to be the punctuation to your life, a film or a novel or a play, a way of celebrating a good week or month. Now it feels as if it's all punctuation.
