Cheryl: Jim, are you listening to yourself?
Jim: Yes I am, Cheryl. I *am* a genius. I can talk and listen to myself at the same time!
Jim: Do you want Cheryl to make you a sandwich?
Dana: I don’t think that’ll help, Jim.
Jim: [pause] Do you want to make *me* a sandwich…?
Andy: [telling Jim that he’s found the bird they didn’t want to find] Jim! B-I-R-D A-T S-I-X O-‘-C-L-O-C-K!
Jim: [confused] … You want to have sex with a clock?
Dana: [trying to distract their mother] Mom, I, uh… I kissed a girl in college!
Andy: Uh… me too!
Maggie: Andy, don’t tell stories.
The first thing you need to know about Jim Belushi is that he’s a performer. Not an actor, not a comedian, not a singer, but a performer. Which is pretty much all those things put together and multiplied by two or five or something.
I want to let you in on a little secret: I wasn’t always the man you see today. There was a time in my life, believe it or not, when I was at rock-bottom. I was a loser. And it’s because of those experiences that I’m able to relate to you guys out there looking for a little guidance, a little help. So, newsflash, kids: I am Joe Everyman.
