When I first started, I was kind of surprised that anyone would ever hire me at all. So I took everything that I was offered.

Characters can become boring. That's what's tricky about television. It goes on and on - you're playing this same character for five seasons and it gets easy to fall into just walking on the set and assuming you know how to play a scene.

A painting can't be everything. You have to stop, at some point. It has to be finished, if you want anyone to see it. Some people just continue to work on things, forever. I don't know which is better.

I do voiceovers, but being on-camera and selling something? I wasn't really interested. And then I thought, well, wait a minute. Everybody's selling something. When you turn on the tube... And then if you go to Europe or Asia, everyone is selling something. All the guys that don't want to be seen selling something here are selling something there. So I thought what the hell?

I've done a lot of pilots. A lot of shows. You're young and you do a job just because you know someone gave you a job.

And I don't want to jump out of an airplane - I've done that.

Viewers can hate a character and at the same time can't take their eyes off of him.
