I think New Yorkers - they're media savvy. People have a sense of humor.

We weren't rich people, but my parents and I shared an interest in the theater and so we went a lot. And that definitely inspired me.

The camera guys can't mess up. God bless them, they hardly ever do. But they literally don't know what's going to happen next. None of us do. And it all has to come together and be funny.

I couldn't just get up every day and be miserable and complain.

I came back to New York after college like any number of struggling performers, and you just find that niche where you can have some sort of impact. And for me that turned out to be comedy.

If someone walks away from me, I just let them walk, and I move on to the next person.

I thought I was going to be like Kevin Spacey in college.
