I felt like 'Life' was a great show. It was really well-written.

San Diego was fantastic. I think there's something about San Diego that is quite different than Los Angeles.

I didn't originally want to be an actor. I didn't know what I wanted to be.

To be honest, when you're young and you watch The Deer Hunter for the first time, that's when you're like, "That's what I want to do."

The desert feels Irish in a way - lonely and barren. If someone said, 'Think of a happy place for you,' I'd say a glacial plane near the South Pole, the wind howling, nobody in sight, a shack with a pot-belly stove and some tea.

I just personally feel like the best writing for actors exists in cable television.

It was all that stuff about taking your parents' car when you're 13, sneaking booze into rock shows and ditching school with your friends. I could relate to that as a former teenager, rather than as a present parent.
