Maybe now it's time to take some chances on TV and push the boundaries with what I can do on television.

I started Pilates. I'm the only guy in there. They plot before I get there: 'How can we make John look ridiculous?' Because every exercise involved my legs up, like I'm in the stirrups or something.

I like when guests come over early and we chop veggies and talk and play music.

I once dated someone who worked at McDonald's. She came up and asked if I wanted a Big Mac.

In the last few years, losing my father, going through a divorce and not getting some jobs I really wanted, is making me a much more interesting person, I think. This all really does feel like a rebirth, a new chapter.

I do know I want to have children. That's the only thing missing in my life. I certainly thought I'd have some by now.

This is an old family secret, and I just found this out recently, and it almost broke my heart. My mother said to me, 'I had never told you this, but God, you were an ugly baby'.
