Its always really surreal, being on a film set, but inside a beautiful, massive scene.
I'd love to work with Steve Martin. I'd love to work with Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd.
I'm still fighting really hard to get any role I get. If it's comedy, I go for the laughs. And if it's drama, I try to tell the truth, and try to play the real stakes of whatever scenario the character's in.
Most of the writers in TV are from L. A. or New York, and those are places where people are cynical and snarky. And they fly from L. A. to New York in an airplane over this vast, expansive land where people aren't snarky; they're a lot more like the 'Parks and Rec' characters.
Both 'OC' and 'Everwood,' there were people on set where you learned to stay away from them on a bad day.
It's weird as actors because I mean we're fortunate in the group of people who have to spend time away from their families. There are men and women serving overseas who certainly have it a lot harder than we do, and there are jobs that take people away from the families, and that's a reality with some jobs that you have. One thing that's really difficult I find is the transition, because not only do you have to learn how to transition to living on your own again, there's a transition that happens learning how to live with somebody again.
I was sowing wild oats and doing the kind of things that you should do when you don't have kids. Now, I'm just doing less of that, but I earned it, you know. I feel like just spending quiet evenings with my wife and son and sitting in bed in the morning and watching him marvel over the curtains opening or whatever little thing. That all feels really good. And so, I've changed because I'm impressed.
Persecution has not crushed it, power has not beaten it back, time has not abated its force, and, what is most wonderful of all, the abuses and treasons of its friends have not shaken its stability.
We tend to feel most comfortable, "most at home", with people whose self esteem level resembles our own.
When forced to choose, I will not trade even a night's sleep for the chance of extra profits.
When someone asks, 'Why do you think he's not calling me?' there's always one answer - 'He's not interested. ' There's not ever any other answer.
