I've wanted to be an actor since I was eight years old and I did TV commercials when I was a kid. When I was eleven Saturday Night Live came on and I thought, "Oh God, I'd love to do that." I saw the Pink Panther movies and thought, "God, I'd love to have a comedy series; I'd love to have a character I'd created that becomes a series." I've now pretty-much done everything I've wanted to do since I was eight years old and it's a wonderful feeling, I've got to say.

People ask me to record their answering machines all the time. I love it. It's a miracle to me that people want to hear back those characters.

I love New York City. I love that I get to live there and I love everything about it.

Canada is a country of ingredients without a cuisine; we're a country with musicians without an indigenous instrument; Toronto's a city that doesn't even have a dish named after it.

Having a kid is like falling in love for the first time when you're 12, but every day.

Europe to me is young people trying to appear middle-aged and middle-aged people trying to appear young.

Dad was in the British Army and my mom was in the Royal Air Force, so both of my parents believed in discipline.
