I like the fact that Jack is always wearing a tie except when he's on a mission. I do like it when I get out there and dress up, or dress down, a little bit.

Being on a television series is sort of life-altering on every level.

When I first read the script a few years ago I thought it was one of the best written scripts I had ever read.

I find that everything I do is demanding, like Jack Bristow is a complicated man and I do a lot of explaining in the show, it takes a lot of energy and concentration.

I had done some TV movies that were great experiences but, no, I wasn't looking to do a series.

And when I go to see plays, I marvel at how people can do that. I've done it all my life, but I still find it mystical.

I don't collect anything. I collect people, I think. I'm very social and I like seeing a lot of people.
