Everyone's a little nervous when you all get together and meet the actors, meet the director. But once you get on set, then it's like a sport. You're playing a game, everyone's equal and that's where it's fun.

Thank goodness I've saved my money.

We ended up moving out to Texas. We live outside of Austin. We've got a couple horses, we've got three miniature donkeys, we've got four dogs. Miniature donkeys are very warm, loving animals.

It's much more enjoyable being an actor.

Austin is such a free and creative place, but I can't enjoy it as much because everyone I love is back in L.A.

I was never upset that I did not get an Emmy. That I did get an Emmy nomination, I couldn't be happier and prouder.

I don't want to say I'm never going to direct again, but directing's hard work.
