I don't think it's good to say that you won't do certain things, but I don't necessarily have the natural urge to write.

American shows can go on for 20 years. I respond more to the British format. Three seasons is a long run for them to tell a story.

Obviously the way people watch TV has changed so much, too, that it's not necessarily about the ratings anymore. There's a different kind of time lapse; you put it out there and people absorb it at their speed, not just on Monday night at eight.

I'm lucky right now because I'm not that famous, people will look at the work just as the work, and people respond to it pretty well. It's just hard to know exactly what group I need to meet and where I need to be. I think fame helps, but I want it to be separate as much as it can. Fame is just so weird, people just love famous people.

It is important to be involved in everything.

I've been reading scripts where they've been doing a lot of singing now, but within the dark, realistic story line. I would love, love, love, love to do that. But not a musical on Broadway, I don't have that kind of energy or stamina.

The words are ludicrous at times, but you add the reality to it and that gives it the balance it has.
