You tripped me up, well this is the easiest of the bunch, right? I couldn't write it fast enough. Wow nice. I'd like to dip you in cheese and spread you at a Ritz. cookie if I'm not being too subtle uh that's Bringing Down the House and uh it's a very fun movie to make. I'd like to dip you in cheese and spread you on a Ritz cracker not to be too subtle, that line was Written but you made me trip, boo, you got me tripping, boo. I attribute it to Queen Latifa. She had other

lines

written for me right before she appeared on camera.

I looked at the line and said, damn, no, no, no. I

know

this line. I'm just trying to be a little trendy and so I went up to her and said what do you think she said right. I wouldn't say it. I said fine. What would you say? She said you understood me. Stumbling Boo couldn't write it fast enough, so every one of those

lines

that she had in the movie, she gave me those lines that got me started, that would be Father of the Bride, Part Two. Comm to get started, Steve. Martin, we worked together for the first time on Father of the Bride, Part Two.

I was in Father of the Bride, Part 1, but I didn't work with Steve, but it wasn't until Cheaper by the Dozen that we really had a great time. working together, I mean, there was a lot of laughter and it was a great work experience. I've never done it with baked goods, but you

know

your uncle Mort he. Pet the one-eyed snake five six times a day. American Pie, of course, but you know your uncle Mort he. Pet the one-eyed snake five six times a day. These were all improvised lines in American Pie. We had had a session a week before the shoot because I wasn't thrilled with the lines they had given me initially, so we went in and improvised and then When I got to set up I was looking for the sides, usually there are some sides that have the lines of the day and they don't. there were no signs, so they said, "Oh, we didn't have them, we thought you'd remember what I did last week, it was actually a lot of fun making that movie.

I thought it was a little soggy when I read the script, but it turned out to be a classic." awesome Tweet us on Facebook uh creek glad to watch your coaster says tweet us on Facebook Daniel came to me with the idea of ​​working together on an idea he had for a show and I and I went for it. I said whatever, sure, the idea of ​​a rich family losing their money, that was basically the launch and then watch it take off artistically from that point on as a writer and actor. I mean, it was crazy how quickly it all came together.

We didn't really peak until our last season and that's when the show really captivated the audience. and wow, I mean, you know we broke a lot of records at the Emmys. I mean, it was pretty amazing, no matter what we do from now on regarding Shitz Creek Never Say Never. I think it has to start in a place that is so good. or better than where we left off it couldn't have ended perfectly he was in the penis sardonically irreverent Schmick I said more ham uh waiting for guffman that was really an amazing little scene my grandfather he was in the very the diic sardonically irreverent Schmick I said more ham.

I wrote the outline for that with Chris Guest, but I didn't really know anything about how those things were done. I wasn't in the spine, so I didn't know how those improv

movies

were made. rehearsing, you just go in front of the camera and do your thing, people ask me you must have been the class clown and I'm like, uh, no I wasn't, this was part of a I think it was an incredibly small race good thing I had speaking in front of the camera. about my background, by the way, the song that bobby made a kishka came from that review, a lot of it was improvised and some things we had written, but one of the funniest

movies

he had a great time doing that I can't dance, I have two left . feet I was born with two left feet, well this is the easiest of the bunch, isn't it?

Best in Show uh, Jerry Fleck's role, I have two left feet, I have two left feet, I thought she was joking, but I didn't I meet Catherine O'Hara for the first time when she was on the production toron of the spell of the gods? It was around 1972. Catherine's brother Marcus was at the time dating Gilda Radner, who was in our company at Godspell, and I would sometimes see Catherine with her brother, although I didn't really know who she was, that's when I met her when I walked into Second City in Toronto, the Second City Theatre. Catherine was working at the theater as a waitress and I met her at the theater in that kind of situation and shortly after she kept auditioning for the show and eventually came on the show as Gilda's understudy when Gilda left to do National Ampon.

Katherine moved in and took over and that's when, you know, we started a working relationship, I guess her. It brings out the best in me, whatever it is, because our working relationship is so good that we are both not afraid to rehearse before going on and we also laugh a lot off camera, which keeps everything in a very relaxed vein, no, No. I don't know the move I wasn't a hormone-crazed Romeo when I was a kid wow no, I don't know the move I wasn't a hormone-crazed Romeo when I was a kid oo wow I don't know how to wait Gman no Cheaper by the dozen two well, there you go , oh, was it the arm the arm the arm around the arm the arm around the shoulder that's what it was wow, well, that one no, I don't know the move, okay?

Romeo was a hormone-crazed Romeo when I was a kid. I remember a scene where we were rolling a log, we were actually on a log in the water. I think we had to be holding on to something that wasn't necessarily in the shot. It called my attention. It was so funny that neither of us could get our bearings on it and I started laughing and they were getting a little angry because they wanted to shoot and I couldn't stop laughing. I couldn't have asked for it. a better day, huh, and then I made Steve laugh and I don't know how they got the scene, but I don't think I've ever finished the scene without laughing, so I don't know how they cut it, it was really funny. establish my mother's family she was nine she was one of nine she could have had nine 12 12 children no no no no no no that's just that I would have gone crazy I would have gone yes they they they would have to lock me up quickly Is it a problem of erection because sometimes you can buy a little time with a well-placed thumb?

That would be American Pie too oh American Pie sometimes you can buy a little time with a well-placed thumb oh God, well, just tell her, tell your mother I ate, might be the phrase I've heard more times than not, well, We'll just tell your mother that, uh, uh, we ate it all. I can't tell you how many weddings I've been to where I was kind of surprised, they'd know they'd bring a cake to the table and you'd have to act surprised, huh, but it happened quite a bit actually, the Queen family trucker, you think you hate him now, but wait until you drive.

National holiday in Ampon the Queen family trucker, you think you hate him now, but how do you drive him? Harold Ramos worked with us at satv at first and we were good friends and when he chose National ampon, he chose a group of us from Second City, so he got I asked the salesman because I guess he saw some kind of seedy quality in me and didn't I know what that means, but I do remember it was a very hot day in Glendale in August. I think they are those stories that the old woman told you. one about the three girls in the house, cannibal girls, the cut line on the poster was these girls eat men.

I think they are those stories that the old woman told him. one about the three girls in the house. I went to school with Ivan, the man who ran the film club at MCM University and I joined the film club and met Ivan Wman and Danny Goldberg, unfortunately they were both way ahead of their time, but we were good friends in college. school and he gave me my first job in the business as a coffee boy in his first feature film and then, because he knew I acted a lot and thought it was fun in college doing all my theater work, he said would you like to be the lead of my upcoming film Cannibal Girls?

That was very exciting for me because when you're a coffee boy on the other side of the camera, you know, when they shout rap at the end of the day, you know, I saw all the actors get in their cars and go home, so I was excited because he was listed as an actor. I could just go home when they said that's a rap. That's how little I knew. Now, on behalf of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, we declare today that on Eugene Levy Day in Hollywood, getting a star on the Walk of Fame is something that you don't even think about, it's not something that just comes up during the course of your life or career.

Awards, trophies and everything else. It's really nice when it happens, it's not about work, but you know it's always nice when someone. recognizes what you're doing, likes it, and tells you it's always nice no matter what you're doing in life, but I go back to watching TV as a kid and this was back in the '50s and '60s and The biggest influence on me, I think of that group it was probably Jack Benny because I loved how he laughed just reacting to other people in the scene, don't you ride in Sid's chair? I think there is one person to whom I can attribute my own style.

It's probably Jack Benny, it's been a good few years recently. You know, good things have been happening to me. I should have started my career when I was 70 years old. Now that I look back, things have gone very, very well and the Hollywood star is just a nice icing on the cake here
