Being a fan of comedy, it's so unique, in their own voice. I was really stoked to be able to participate. They're so great at just coming up with stuff on the fly and making stuff funny.

More quotes by Justin Theroux
Normally when you're promoting something a lot, sometimes you get tired.
Justin Theroux
When I was 13, I kind of got into the punk scene. I realized it was easier to wear a pair of combat boots and jeans and a beat-up T-shirt. I think of it as a uniform: Ya know, if you're a Maytag man, you put on your bow tie. I still have T-shirts from when I was that age.
Justin Theroux
I didn't have a lot of ambition, which I think was a good thing. I mean, I was ambitious about quality, but I wasn't ambitious in the I've got to get a pilot! way. I never went out to L.A. for pilot season.
Justin Theroux
I was always acting. I was doing after-school plays and stuff like that. But I wasn't doing well in any of the schools, so by ninth or tenth grade, I ended up going to a boarding school.
Justin Theroux
I hate when people make a really good product and then stop making it. I get annoyed.
Justin Theroux
There's a logic to dreams that doesn't necessarily follow linear narrative. You don't know why things happen, it's your subconscious pushing you, to give you information.
Justin Theroux
I've never been shocked by anything on television, except the news.
Justin Theroux
I've never been the guy who's like, 'I take it home with me.'
Justin Theroux
I love New York. It's kind of perfect. I'm in New York part of the time and in L.A. part of the time. That's always been a goal, to be bicoastal in a real way.
Justin Theroux
I've always been pretty happy with my style. I've been wearing tapered jeans since 1980 something.
Justin Theroux
D.C. is a hard city to grow up in. I couldn't find my footing there. Also, I got a late start academically, and I was dyslexic.
Justin Theroux
In New York, you can bump into someone on the street and go to a thing, go get coffee real quick.
Justin Theroux
Actually, I'm reading a lot of my scripts. When I'm working on something, it's hard to find time. You're always prepping new material. You don't want to be buried in a book. It splits your focus a little bit.
Justin Theroux
There was a moment, late into the season, where I was noticing I was darkening a little bit at night. I was like, 'It will be nice when the show is over for the season. I need a vacation.'
Justin Theroux
I'm not method or anything like that, but sometimes you get the scenes and you're like 'Really, Damon [Lindelof]? More of this? Can I have one scene where it's a walk in the park?' But he doesn't do that. He puts every character through their paces.
Justin Theroux
I did Chekhov's Three Sisters once. Two months in, I remember going, Human beings shouldn't be forced to do or watch this play every night. It's so dark and so bottomless.
Justin Theroux
In the '90s, there was a big bell-bottom craze. Everyone was wearing grungy bell-bottoms. It was so repugnant to me.
Justin Theroux
There was a time when doing Zoolander 2 that I was literally flying between the Zoolander shoot and The Leftovers in Texas and at that point, I was getting comedy whiplash. It was a relief, though, to get to Rome and be like, Oh my God, I get to laugh on set.
Justin Theroux
I like all the clichés. I mean, I love someone who lives in Los Angeles - so that's a big draw. But I love the weather. It does feel like a slightly healthier lifestyle, being able to hike and do all that crap.
Justin Theroux
If I was roped into a seven-year TV contract I'd probably hang myself.
