“To be the newcomer — the baby at three seasons — and to be able to celebrate 1,000 episodes of a television show, I don’t know if people really know how big of a feat that is,” Lachey told the media outlet ET. “… I am just honored, in addition to being continually humbled, and I am quite appreciative.
