I've gotten such good feedback from that [re-team with Wil Wheaton for Big Bang Theory appearance], and I hardly did anything.

[Martin Scorsese ] basically works just like any other director. You work the scene, you try to find what's best in it and make it work. That's what it was like.

I assumed, Well, I must've sounded like Conan O'Brien, or a reasonable facsimile or something. And there I am in the movie [South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut ]. I was very lucky.

The woman who wrote the movie [Ladies And Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains], her name is Nancy Dowd. She's a wonderful writer. She wrote Coming Home. And when I read the script, at that time, I thought, This movie is going to do for girls what Breaking Away did for boys. I thought it was going to be huge. It was a great script.

Hollywood has more than its share of harsh and crewel stories. In fact, it's probably more the norm than the exception.

It just occurred to me that there are some beautiful shots [in Rent Control] with the World Trade Center in the background.

We had lunch that day [with Chris Ellis], and I was talking about this idea. I toyed with it a little bit on Twitter in story form at one point. And he thought it was a great idea, and he thought, Well, let's bring my friend Harry Hannigan in, who's a wonderful writer, and let's see if we can put something together.

There is no question that everybody who works in show business is lucky because of the number of people who wish they where working in show business.

They were nicely written and nicely directed episodes [Star Trek: Enterprise]. I enjoyed working with Scott [Bakula]. So it was good to do, and, as you said, it did serve to enhance the Soong legacy.

I've played myself before this [Brent Spiner] - and I've played myself since, for that matter - and playing yourself one of the most difficult characters you can play, 'cause God knows most of us don't know who that is.

I didn't audition or anything like that. But I went into John Loganhis office... It was his screening room in his office, actually, and I sat and schmoozed with him for about two minutes, which I think is standard, and, y'know, we got on fine.

I know a guy who writes on the show, it was his episode, and he called and said, Would you do it? And I said, Yeah. There's not really much else to tell, except that I was thrilled to be on The Simpsons, because it's one of the greatest series in the history of television.

You look at that movie [Dude, Where's My Car?] now, and you know exactly when it was made. And that's what kids were like then.

That's what kids were like then. So I really like the movie [Dude, Where's My Car? ], I think it's genuinely funny, and I wish I hadn't been so arrogant about it. And, of course, I didn't know it was going to be my best work, either.

Comedy really is my bread and butter, even when I'm doing a serious character, with the exception of Outcast. I have found very little humor in this character. Most of the time, what I do, somewhere there is comedy in it.
