I don't think I could ever do a network sitcom because the humor is often based on some trite circumstance. I don't want to be a part of a show where it's mostly about coming up with the jokes.

At the very least, my tastes are out of the ordinary.

You say a line and you wait for them to laugh, then you say another line and you wait... It felt weird to me. But it's interesting and the energy is almost like theatre, I suppose, with all the people there

I got Twin Peaks, and the part was basically written for me, which was a really big shock. I think everything really changed with the right teacher coming together, but before that I worked with Sondra Seacat; she's amazing and very spiritual, but I hadn't worked with her on specific roles. I just was in classes with her.

Twin Peaks was special because it was so groundbreaking. In the early 90s it really changed television a lot. A bunch of weird shows, like Northern Exposure, came on after that.

It's not sometimes realistic to think that something magical can happen, but I think I look for the magic.

The truth is, I was always picky anyway.
