I put a tremendous amount of pressure on myself. I felt like I shouldn't have to audition for anything and all that. And that energy did not serve me at all.
Hank Azaria

Being funny with a funny voice is more my comfort zone, a broader character that I try to humanize, a kind of silly or wacky persona that I try to fill in.
Hank Azaria
Image
I tend to not watch things that are current. And then if everybody swears it's amazing then I'll like watch the whole series in a weekend.

Image
I would love to do Broadway again.

I guess for me the greatest injustice is to see people robbed of that interiority and process of association.

I just really committed to trying to never repeat myself. I'd seen actors do that on films, and I was, like, I wanna try that once! Ultimately, I'm much more in the school of getting one or two versions that feel right, as opposed to going all over the map. But it's fun to exercise that once in awhile.

Women are, in general, less shallow visually. If their man gains 10, 20 pounds, they don't care as much.

I did a lot of theater in college, and I knew that not many people make it, but I just figured, 'Well, I really want to try acting while I'm young, and I don't ever want to look back and say that I never gave it a try.' I fully figured I'd be back in grad school - probably for psychology.

I've always been a fan of plain writing. I hate metaphor-laden, heavily larded, lyrical writing.
Hank Azaria

You can't be funny for funny's sake. You try to get as outrageous situation as you can but it always has to be believable and based in real character motivations and what people would really do.
Hank Azaria

When you're on a series that's been cancelled, there's a little bit of a stink on you.

I think the reason the Golden Age of television is so golden is because a lot of folks are willing to let creators do their thing and live or die by their own muse. They certainly allow us to do that.
