My parents own a restaurant in Albuquerque.

I feel like with actors wanting to direct, you really only have a shot or two. You can't just make a bunch of little independent movies, and then finally one gets noticed. You have to make a really good one right away.

Playing a villain was fun, only because you get to do all the things you wouldn't normally do in your real life.

The TV schedule is fantastic. It allows you to have a life. Theater actors are so disciplined - especially if you're doing musicals, you have to be in shape physically, mentally, and have to be on your game all the time. That's exhausting. On TV, especially a sitcom, you have a lot of free time to play.

We're blessed on 'How I Met Your Mother' to feel like we're doing a bit of a funny playlet everyday.

A cardio-funk class - I should have at least taken one of those. But it's always terrified me. I'm never one to be a dancer on the dance floor, even at a bar or a club.

I think when dance is mediocre, it's painful. But when dance is really impressive, it destroys.
