Jerry Van Dyke's Quotes
- [Describing his famous older brother] "Dick has always been kind of a private guy. He has a wonderful personality and he's great to talk to, but it's hard to really get close to him. Dick's a loner."
- (On the demise of his long-running sitcom Coach (1989)): "I was ready to move on and try some other things. But I had mixed feelings: I hated to leave the set; but after a while, you run out of stories".
- To me, life is like a soap opera. I love tuning in every day to see what's going to happen next.
- [on the script for the pilot of Gilligan's Island (1964)] It was the worst thing I have ever read in my life.
