Television is in a different time because of reality television, so it's not as exciting.

After eight years on 'Young and the Restless' and eight years on 'Criminal Minds,' I'm ready for that next phase of my career.

Now that I've established myself in a drama, I'm plugging away, trying to get the attention of people who do the independent movies and the features.

I hosted Soul train but I listen to everything.

I do like working out. I feel my best when I work out, but you know, I'm human. I like to ride my bicycle and lift weights and hike. When I am diligently working out, ideally, I like to work out four days a week. If I can do that, I feel good about myself.

Celebrities have more influence to be able to reach out to people, but people are becoming famous on Facebook and social media every day.

But there are still good shows like 24, Boomtown and the Wire, the Shield.
