Marriage, children-you never expect it to end in tragedy. Unless you're me.

I mean, the competition is really created by the buzz around the Emmys. It's a totally subjective thing.

Sometimes men present a swagger that suggests a prowess, whether it's sexual or financial. L.A. seems to be a place where trying too hard is almost a given. Some people are unapologetic about how blatantly they represent who they are through what they wear or drive. Subtlety is in short supply.

I'm very focused on "Dexter" right now. I want to make it as good of a show as we can.

I think we're really - we're doing a really great job doing our show, and other shows are doing a great job doing theirs, and we'll just see what people have to say.

So it's really nice after about a year and a half to get back on stage and flex those old muscles.
