I always say that No Ordinary Family was the show that should've been.

I've had a career where I've bounced around a lot between different genres, and I feel very lucky and very blessed that that's happened to me.

I love doing action films that do challenge me physically. I feel it's my job to keep my stamina up and be as physically fit as possible, so that I can just jump in and do it. It takes its toll sometimes and it's hard work, but I love that.

Darla [from Buffy The Vampire Slayer] was where I grew up. For me, Darla was like going to graduate school for acting. I learned so much with Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt. They encouraged us to make creative choices with our characters.

I've been an actor for 30 years, so I pretty much know how to do the basics of a fight without hurting anybody.

And I'm not very coordinated, either. Only on ice skates, not in real life.

I loved working on that show [Defiance]. I mean, that show was brutal. We worked long, brutal hours in really brutal weather.
