It's great to write for actors when you know who they are. I think I prefer it.

The writer's room is a really interesting place to be.

Back in Australia, I did foster care for sick cats for years, and I was always most successful with the animals when I was given two - a brother and sister.

My dad was in the army so we moved around a lot and I changed schools every year and had to make new friends, and I found that if I was the funny guy I could do that easier.

I like drama as well. When I played Hamlet, I got one review that said, "This must surely be the funniest Hamlet in history," but schoolgirls would still cry when he died.

I really think that you can extract a lot of comedy out of really dramatic, intense situations.
