- With drama, you know if you're having a true moment, but in comedy, if somebody doesn't laugh, then you know you're not being funny. That's a really fun challenge, and that's what draws me to comedy.
- I started in television as a youngster and was 14 when I started acting professionally.
- I don't think anybody in my graduating class would have figured that I would be doing full-on single-camera comedies or sitcoms, or anything like that, but it certainly has been a part of my career.
- I'm a fan of the old "Creature Features", like Critters (1986), Gremlins (1984) and Tremors (1990). Jaws (1975) is classic. It's funny that I still like those films because I remember my mom would tease me about getting a pet Critter to keep under my bed.
- Sci-fi fans really have a commitment to the characters even as much as the actors do. There's a synergy between making television and who gets to watch it.
