More quotes by Donal Logue
I have 52 first cousins. My mom and dad were the only two to move to North America, so I've got deep family there, but I'm a California kid.

It was all that stuff about taking your parents' car when you're 13, sneaking booze into rock shows and ditching school with your friends. I could relate to that as a former teenager, rather than as a present parent.

Then I did The Tao of Steve and that was at Sundance in 2000 where it did really well.
Donal Logue
My characters are always utterly sympathetic to me.

I have to say that it was a thrilling ride to be on 'Terriers.' It was this odd circumstance where it was really loved by the people it was loved by, but it didn't do well. In fairness to FX, they were just so generous in keeping it on the air the whole year.

The desert feels Irish in a way - lonely and barren. If someone said, 'Think of a happy place for you,' I'd say a glacial plane near the South Pole, the wind howling, nobody in sight, a shack with a pot-belly stove and some tea.

I did a pilot for HBO, called One Percent, that they didn't end up picking up, but it was a pretty intense and dramatic piece.

I did pilots here and there but mostly I was doing little bits in movies.

No, I'm not a comic book guy. I'm pretty fascinated with the subculture though and I do think that the world of comic books is such a natural transition into film.

A college football star, by his senior year, is used to running out there with 110,000 people going nuts. They feel comfortable in that environment. To me, a set feels like that. The one thing that I do know is that, as long as I'm prepared, I know this environment and this world.
Donal Logue
It didn't get into Sundance although I showed a rough cut which is a mistake to all filmmakers out there.

You can judge a country by the way it treats its prisoners, and you can always judge a show by the way it treats people coming on to do these guest shots.

Well Bill Martin and Mike Schiff were the creators and they knew we had to do a family show. Everybody came at it from the angle of having been a kid and a teenager.
Donal Logue
One thing that's interesting is that whenever something starts, like the school year when you were a kid, it feels like such a significantly huge time in your life and how much life has changed. What's surprising is how quickly it's going by.
Donal Logue
I love not feeling this hydraulic pressure that you have to create this comic moment within every scene. You can just play it as it is.

This sounds so bogus, but I would love to, at some point when my kids are in college, is just go do a whole season at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and do a year of plays. Most actors miss the days of live theater.

I remember working on movies like Gettysburg and feeling that Jeff Daniels was kind of a mentor.

I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.
Donal Logue
I'd have to say my favorite thing about working on the show, and something that might be intriguing to other people, is that it's just such an amazingly welcoming environment to work in.

I'm a professional hanger outer. I'm a super liability, too. I joke around and I'm like a hyper-active child.
