He tells the amazing story of the awful Catwoman, how he owned his role in the movie, what went wrong and buying rounds with 'Catwoman money'.
John tells us about the transition from stand-up comedian and sitcom actor to Cosby, developing the Jackie Chan animated series and being 'on the list' as a showrunner.
He described buying fountain pens as his treat, the multiple failures in between successes and how new studio bosses kill off all their predecessors' projects.
