I grew up as a very sarcastic person. I was always the class clown, and to date girls I had to be really funny. I was really skinny growing up.

I guess show business is a lot like baseball: "Wait until next year!" You just never know. Some of the shittiest shows I've ever seen run forever, and some of the best things never get a chance.

I can't emphasize the immediate panic that would set in when I had to audition. I can't believe I did it.

I had no idea that, when you audition for television or movies, you go to a big building - like, an office building - and you walk in the room, and everybody, I assumed, was smarter than me and better than me, and there's actors you recognize. I once fainted at an audition.

I just don't feel like part of the fraternity of actors. I do geek out. All the time.

Probably my favorite job that I've ever had and probably will have - although I'm reserving judgment on 'Manhattan Love Story,' Tuesday nights at 8:30 on ABC, because it's pretty fun so far - is 'Psych,' which I did for four or five years.

When real actors are approaching their work, we could be on a little stage somewhere, doing community theater. It's all the same. They're just trying to make the scene work. They're just trying to do the best they can and figure it out.
