My fans probably know what I had for breakfast that morning. And that's the cool part. And I respond to people, if they post on my blog, I'm like, "Oh, that's really cool you read that book, that fantasy series!" It's almost like they're my friends in a sense. There's less separation. They know me more as a human being with my flaws, versus some kind of actor on a pedestal.

When I carve out time to game, it's because I rationalize that I 'deserve it,' so I relish every minute of that 2-3 hour session.

My favorite 'Mister Rogers' episodes were always the ones where Mr. Rogers would go into the community.

I learned that lack of budget can be overcome by fan passion if you can get your content to the people who like what you do.

I still do commercial work as an actor, which I love, because it's very quick, and it definitely pays my bills.

I am excited for the future of the industry, because we're at that point now where digital is becoming pertinent to release and distribution strategy versus releasing on cable or anywhere else.

I love sitcoms, and I grew up on sitcoms. That's my tasty junk food. So I wanted to create a sitcom and have some really quirky characters, because most of the stuff they make now is just so marginalized. How interesting is a white guy who's 28 years old and lives in New York? What story have we not seen about a character like that? Just as a writer, it's so much easier to come up with comedy when you have a really oppressed Indian boy. Or a mother who is an addict but still has to take care of her kids.
