Tim Reid Quotes
What Helped Me Get The Part Was That I Turned It Down. When I Read The Script, Venus Was Just A Black Guy Who Came In Wearing A Big Coat And A Hat And Making Jive Talk. I'd Been Up For So Many Of Those! I'd Had Enough Of Caricatures, What White Writers Conceive Blacks To Be. I Told The Producer I Wasn't Interested In Doing Anything Like That For Three Or Four Years. He Said That It Was Just A Pilot, That Venus Would Be Given A Human Dimension And Would Be Quiet Off-the-air. I Wanted That Input. I Thought That Side Was As Important As The Comic Side. For 'WKRP,' Too Much Of Either Would Be Bad.
