The aim of this study is to investigate the idea that the pragmatic marker (henceforth PM) anyway is oriented to attributes of spoken language and reciprocal actions, paying special attention to how its use is embedded in the circumstance of the turn-sequences through which the host and his guests exhibit exceptional orientations in the American television talk show (henceforth ATTS) Larry King Live. Throughout the analysis in regard to the sequences of chaining of the PM anyway, it was found that the use of anyway exhibits multifunctionalities, which for both host and guests were found in the roles of the unassociative stance marker. This marker ordinarily has the multifunctional discursive functions to cease, concede, resume, digress, append, intensify, renounce, terminate, and dissent from a topic in a stalemate. In terms of the issue of imbalance in the use of anyway, the tokens of anyway were largely found in the utterances of the guests, rather than those of the host. It may be speculated that the equilibrium of power in the ATTS tends to be slanted toward the guests. The multifunctionalities of anyway between the participants connote unassociative stances in their correlations since they may utilize anyway to signal that they do not intend to continue to utter, take, or hold the floor any longer with respect to disturbing or avoidant circumstances.
