Award shows are fun, but completely arbitrary and absurd. And yet, I will watch every single one of them.

I was very much an only child who was raised by the television and movies, and I grew up in New York. We weren't, like, rich people, but we were middle-class people and my parents supported this love I had for entertainment.

Facebook is weird. They have all of these seemingly random rules that I'm sure make sense to them, but don't make sense to me or any people.

It was one of Hulu's first original shows to really go out there. Now a year has passed, and the second season is getting a great response. I think the show [Difficult People] itself creatively has evolved, has gotten much richer and tighter.

I started out as a very traditional actor. The first thing I ever did in terms of performance was singing.

It's crazy. I don't know how I'm not dead. People think I'm going to get punched in the face: "Something terrible is going to happen to you. You're going to get killed." That's not what's going to kill me. The show is going to kill me. The work is going to kill me. Once I'm on the street, I'm not worried about that.

If you really think you have something good, you can't take no for an answer. You've got to get in there and ignore the people who say no.
