It's so enjoyable to play a bad guy, you know.

I did all sorts of cartoons and stuff. And every once in a while I still do. It's rare, but it happens.

Everyone's different. I mean, some people write journals for their characters and stuff, but that was never really my area.

Pretty much any time in my career where I worked on television it was usually because of some financial woes or something.

I was often getting hired to play sociopaths and psychopaths and stuff, which is really funny.

I think I was always interested in darker characters just because there was a lot more to do.

I feel that as a writer and as a performer too. I never really thought about backstory for characters. It was much more of a musical approach: You learn a melody, and then you sing it, I suppose, or you find a rhythm or a cadence that works for the material. And then it's sort of about hitting that note correctly and finding those beats.
