“I can’t express how grateful I am to work with such an incredible cast and crew, nor can I ever properly express my gratitude to them and to all of you — our devoted fans and viewers!”
“I can, however, promise to keep working my tail off to show you how grateful I am for this incredible opportunity to be welcomed into your homes (with my TV family) each week.”
