tunes watches cookies
A lot of the television industry is so cookie-cutter. In general, there are so many shows that are easy and bland to watch. You can tune in at any time and know exactly where you are in the story arc because it's pretty much the same every week.
creative killers process
Fear is a killer, when it comes to the creative process.
jobs attitude giving
This is advice I would give to any young actor - if you go into a room with anybody and you come in with a positive attitude and a place of love, and you truly do love what you're doing, then the negative energy doesn't even get into the room. You just have to prepare, and then go in and be the best you that you can be, and you'll either get the job or you won't.

My wife asks me, when I get home from auditions, if they asked how tall I am. And if I say "Yes," then she says, "Okay, you didn't get that job."
america ebola want
What hard evidence is there that Obama doesn't want ebola in America?
thinking people interesting
I'm always looking, as an actor, for activities. I think it's far more interesting to watch what people do than what they say. You always want to watch behavior, because the dialogue as written by our illustrious leaders is great. Eminently playable.

I was involved with drama departments since the 5th grade. I played at it. It was an escape.

I tested for a couple of pilots, but they said I was too tall.
party laughing fans
I just consider myself a piece of the puzzle and I'm lucky enough to be asked or invited to the party, if you will. I hope I can bring some laughs and grimaces to the fans.
party air audience
You can't control the audience. When you're on the air and they're not coming to the party, it's time to shut down the party.
technique captivating stills
Stillness as a technique is still really captivating to me.
hero men guy
The guys I grew up with, my cinematic heroes, have always been men of few words, but of action. Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach.
nerd acting band
Acting had always been the social scene I'd fallen into. It was sort of a merry band of band geeks and theater nerds.
hero firefighter long
My heroes are the camera crew and the electricians. They work such long hours.
