#2507 - Harland Williams
"I went in and auditioned, and the feedback to my agents was, John said, this guy wants his own sitcom. And I said to my agents, I said, you're damn right I do. And the next gig I got was my own sitcom."
Harlan Williams disclosed that actor John Larroquette blocked him from a guest role on The John Larroquette Show in the 1990s, sensing Williams had ambitions beyond guest appearances. Williams confirmed Larroquette's instinct was correct, as he shortly after landed his own sitcom called Simon, co-starring Jason Bateman.
