Katey Sagal Talks Proving People Wrong

Actress Katey Sagal recently appeared at the ATX TV Festival, where she had this to say, as reprinted by Page Six:

“I was told years ago when my dad sent me to casting people that I would never work in television. ‘You are not [the] TV type,’ they said to me. ‘You should go to New York, you should just be on the stage. You will never work in television.’ Fuck them. I showed them...It’s never been easy for me. I know I’ve continued to work and I think it’s super amazing that I’ve continued to work, but I’m always the one that has to prove to you that I can do it. It’s just kind of been that way.”

Katey Sagal has starred in the series Married with Children, 8 Simple Rules, and Sons of Anarchy.
