My first love is acting on stage. A sitcom is a hybrid of stage and film.

I did a Moonlighting episode because I was friends with Whoopi [Goldberg, who guest-starred in the same episode], and she asked me to do it and I did it. But yeah, that was my first regular on a series, and it's because I'd met Brooke Shields a number of years earlier at a charity event.

I went to acting school in New York City for two years. I studied with Stella Adler

I still think Brooke Shields is aces. She's really smart, interesting, doesn't feel that her time is more valuable than anyone else's. Really hardworking. And I knew that if she was the star of the show, it's going to be a good experience. And it was.

I put less stock in others' opinions than my own. No one else's opinions could derail me.

I got offered to do Ben 10. Sue Blu was the [voice] director of that, and I had worked with her - I think she was on Transformers as well. And she was so great.

Trace Adkins doesn't talk too much, but when he does he's got great stories. He's lived a great life.
