I mean, I gotta say one of the greatest victories on that show was when we got picked up for the back nine of the first season, and they made it a full order.

It's very rare that people are exactly who they appear to be. Venice has a lot of that too, but the face of it is quite beautiful, interesting, and textured.

I want my son to wear a helmet 24 hours a day.

When it sort of finally sets in that you're not going to be doing that anymore... it's disappointing.

That's kind of the nature of the profession I'm in. It's frustrating. Things don't go your way, and I was no exception, in that I spent many years struggling to get work, and there are a lot of people more talented than myself who got jobs before me. And I finally, after years and years and years, got lucky.

Arrested Development opened a lot of doors for me, and once I sort of became, I guess what you'd say available, there was a lot of opportunity out there, and it's been nice a lot of people have found it in their hearts to offer me movie parts.

I want my son to wear a helmet 24 hours a day. If it was socially acceptable I'd be the first one to have my kid in a full helmet and like a cage across his face mask.

All jokes aside, it's a very difficult job playing the straight man. Jason is potentially the most brilliant straight man that ever was because he's also really funny while doing it, which is even harder. I've always seen myself playing characters who are flawed. We use comedy in our lives to obscure the drama.

I never really spent time being jealous. Maybe I should have.

And then we've got Blades of Glory, and we've got Brothers Solomon, and I've got a script in development with this guy Chuck Martin who used to write on Arrested, and, you know, we have a few things in various stages of development.

I don't want to make a show about AA because it's a personal experience for anybody who is a part of that. My relationship with it has changed over the years, and I wanted the show to reflect that in a real way.

This pilot, by far, was the best I ever read - and I hope that insults every other pilot I worked on.

My first movie was this independent that I did on the Erie Canal in 1995, called Erie, that I don't know if you could even get, actually with Felicity Huffman. And then from that I did this film that was eventually called The Broken Giant later that fall. And then I kind of started getting into doing pilots.

I've always maintained that I don't think comedy should be reviewed. I think it's un-reviewable, because it is so subjective.

When I was in my 20s, I wanted to go after dramatic roles, and I didn't have a tremendous amount of success with that.
