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

Generally, I have to be able to get the lines out of my mouth without making a mistake before I go to sleep.

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

I do know that when I look around in show business, I see a lot of people who were in my drama class in high school.

Having spent so much time in a fictional world, I prefer to read about the real world
Brent Spiner

Rent Control is not a terrible movie, certainly not for the budget they had. And, again, it's such an '80s kind of thing.

The one on Fresh Hell is a little easier, because we make it up. It's a strange kind of hybrid of the real me and... Well, obviously it's me standing there, and it's my voice and my face, but it's also kind of filtered through Harry Hannigan's take on the character, the one he's writing.

I think it's the business part of the word show business that causes me the most concern.
Brent Spiner

No, actually I'm trying to stay away from the big screen.

I have to go with Data's makeup, because that was basically every day, 10 months out of the year, for seven years. There were only a couple of days that I had to endure for Dr. Soong.

People think that being on Star Trek is career suicide, but it's really just the opposite
Brent Spiner

I don't think everybody wanted to be on [new Star Trek series] . I certainly didn't.

Joey being one of my finest performances ever. Matt LeBlanc's basically doing the same thing right now, playing himself on Episodes. When I did Joey, I really leaned on them to make me the biggest ass they possibly could, because, frankly, everyone in their heart of hearts thinks of themselves that way. Or at least I do, anyway.

That job [on Out to Sea], more than any I've ever done, I couldn't wait to get to work in the morning. And not only that, but I had a great part. So it was just beyond fun on every level.

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.

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

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.

Bill Prady and Chuck Lorre, the guys who run that show [Big Bang Theory], are really funny and really smart, and the cast is fantastic to work with.

I had a fantastic teacher in high school. I had one of those guys you dream of having, who molds your life and inspires you to go in a particular direction, and he was quite brilliant. His name was Cecil Pickett, and a lot of the kids from my high-school drama class are in professional show business and have done quite well.

[Voice acting] is such an easy job. It's like stealing money, really. Which I'm always happy to do.
