I really was interested in doing something for a premium channel like Showtime or HBO, just because you get to really let loose. I think they let their storylines go wherever they want, and it's really a special place to work.

It's so fun to play a character that has so many layers that people won't even know, until the next season.

When you're acting on TV, you want to keep it real.

It's funny: I put money into short films, and I put really good actors in it, and I write some stuff that's really funny, and I'll get, like, a million views. But to the right of me, there will be a video of a kitten that falls into a toilet bowl, and it's three seconds long, and it will get 25 million views.

I never went to acting school, so improv was my training. Just being quick on your feet helps in everyday life.

I love doing comedy. One of my favorite things in the world is to do Parks and Recreation; a big fun character.

If you really want to be successful in the business, you have to make that your priority, above family and everything else. It takes up every minute of your life.
