People would stop me in the street - my demographic tends to be the elderly Jewish women from Miami; I think they tend to fancy me as someone that would've been good with their daughter or something - and a lot of them will do the wrist-slapping thing. "Oh, you're a terrible man! Just terrible!" And I'm, like, "Well, it's just a show. I'm just playing a character."

Bradley Cooper was an asshole, but he was - like Sidney Lumet, like George Clooney - the nicest guy in the world. I sound like the biggest ass-kisser ever. But I'm telling the truth, I swear to God!

Why things get canceled or not is so unbelievably out of actors' hands that it's one of those things where you've just got to ride with it.

Hugh Laurie was intimidating, but he's the greatest guy. He's so wonderful and smart and funny and serious, and he sets the bar high. So if I was scared, it's because I wasn't measuring up.

I think I've been able to be in some really good projects with some really good people.

Being able to play a role where you're there almost every day and you're just in it... I remember it was a whirlwind, but it was a lot of fun.

I certainly have played a lot of strong characters, and I love playing a strong character.
