Encouragement from my high school teacher Patty Hart said 'you need to focus and theater might be your route out of here.' I created the program, went to college and graduate school and now here I am.

If you think about TV series, we make 16 one-hour movies a season. You don't get any opportunity like that in movies. I mean, I can't say I'll be able to do 16 movies in the next year, and so that's how I see it.

What would surprise a lot of people about me... I'm a gardener! I have a green thumb. I really like to get into the shrubs, the bushes, and really cultivate.

I have a hands-off policy when it comes to my larynx.

When you're dealing with espionage and covert affairs, sometimes the secret is more exciting than the knowledge.

Believe it or not, I don't own a TV. Crazy huh?

As much as theyll let me I do my own stunts and I do all my own fighting.
