"I have a memory of getting angry at you once," Danson continued. "I feel like I missed out on the last 30 years of Kelsey Grammer," he said. "I feel like it's my bad, my doing, and I almost feel like apologizing to you," Danson said. "No, I don't feel like. I apologize to you and me that I sat back" he furthered.
