What I've learned from fatherhood is that having a son cannot, did not, change my love for The Bachelor! I thought that having a son would make me grow up when it came to my TV viewing habits, but I love The Bachelor even more after having a child.
Jason BiggsI like to think what I bring to the table is kind of a sympathetic and endearing quality, even while I'm playing outcasts or characters that end up in outlandish situations.
Jason BiggsYou realize we're all going to go to college as virgins. They probably have special dorms for people like us.
Jason BiggsI'm a big fan of shock value humour and I find myself being most comfortable when I make other people uncomfortable. Is that sick of me? I really like it.
Jason BiggsBasically, what happened was, I had moved out to Los Angeles, I was pretty damn lazy and I put on some pounds.
Jason BiggsI'd like to get more involved in that world. I'm better when I'm teamed up with an experienced writer - when I potentially have someone guiding me. But I'm getting involved and I'm learning a lot.
Jason BiggsPeople would see me on a Nickelodeon commercial, and I would hear about it the next day in school
Jason BiggsThere's obviously some appeal in scenes for me - there's something I respond to. I keep doing those films where I put myself out there like that. I guess I look for those kinds of moments and I pride myself on being an actor who will do just about anything for a laugh - so long as it's within context of the scene in the movie and it's not gratuitous. I have to feel it'll make people laugh.
Jason BiggsEverywhere you turn, you see me in a movie, and I'm sorry. At this point, people must be saying, 'God, Biggs again? Can't we get away from this guy?'
Jason BiggsBut I did have two months off between Loser and the start of Prozac Nation. So, it was supposed to be Jason time, right? My time to enjoy myself away from movies.
Jason BiggsMy position now, especially in this town, adds an element of skepticism with people you meet - especially girls. I mean, it becomes a lot more difficult.
Jason BiggsLike anyone who goes to college, you're leaving a familiar surrounding and a comfortable environment and your friends and everything, and you're starting fresh. It can be pretty daunting.
Jason BiggsI'd like to do more dramatic roles but I would never give up comedy to do it. I've seen a lot of actors that do a complete 180 degrees and say: "I'm done with comedy, I want to be taken seriously." I take my comedy very seriously and I want to be taken seriously because of my comedy. I think it's more fun for me. I enjoy laughing and attempting to make people laugh. So I'd like to do more drama but I'd never do the 180 thing.
Jason BiggsI've always felt most comfortable in the hopeless romantic, underdog kind of roles who always gets the girl in the end. I don't know what that says about me but for some reason it's a natural fit.
Jason BiggsSomething about being projected on a 70 foot screen makes you more attractive and appealing to the opposite sex, which is pretty scary.
Jason BiggsMichael Ian Black wears many hats. He's a stand-up comedian, a comedic actor, he's now a writer-director so he knew how to work with all of us. And furthermore, because so much of his career is based on improvisation he gave us the freedom to do that as well.
Jason BiggsWell, I'm proud to say American Pie was the kind of crazy, gross-out film that guys thought was the greatest.
Jason BiggsThe truth is that, after 30 years old, men still masturbate. There are still sexual problems that arise for guys.
Jason BiggsGetting married has shifted my focus, in such a profound way. You just realize, "Oh, I can't be so selfish anymore. There's someone else."
Jason BiggsIn high school, I got picked on. It's funny that I got tormented for what I'm doing now - the acting thing. People would see me in a Nickelodeon commercial, and I would hear about it the next day at school. Kids would say, 'Hi, TV Boy.' They heckled. I never got beat up.
Jason BiggsA girl came up to me in a bar and said she wanted to be my apple pie. I wish I'd said something cool, but I was stunned.
Jason BiggsI think there's a lack of really, really good funny scripts out there that work on all the levels that they're supposed to - which is to say that they're not just funny but they have interesting characters that people are going to like and be invested in. I've done a bunch of movies that haven't worked but I like to think I've done some that have worked and that's because not only is the comedy there but the characters and storylines are interesting. The characters are real and relateable and people were invested in them.
