Growing up in Livingston, New Jersey, was terrific.

I'm obviously not a guy who focuses on weight too much. But for certain jobs, you have to gain or lose weight.

I would like to work with challenging material. A challenge is good. If it's good material; it's a challenge.

My parents were actors. And so I was born in New York City, and when I was 7, they quit acting and went back to medical school at the University Of Chicago.

I don't know if you can catch my vibe, but I'm a pretty laid-back guy.

I would never put my kids in front of the camera.

If you're a suburban kid, and you're 30 minutes from New York City, that's the luckiest thing in the world.

I don't really know how to build a career or what to do. But I have the instinct to keep doing different things so people can see different things.

I try to do different things as much as I can. I feel like every actor, there's a limited number of tricks and go-tos. The real good stuff you can't get to unless it's something you haven't done before. So I try to make sure each thing is slightly different. Unless it's for the money. Then I don't care.

I think the least stereotypical gay character on television is probably Matt LeBlanc on 'Episodes.' He just plays it so straight-faced. They never talk about the fact that he's such a huge gay person.

What I love about sketch is that the writing of it is idea-based. It's not story-based. It's like, 'This is a behavior, and we're going to write, in a small sample, the funniest way to heighten this behavior.' Sitcoms or movies are about story.

I got to see Jack White. I love his new album. There's a song on the album called 'I Think I Should Go to Sleep' that my son loves. We play it on a loop around the house, and he just bounces around.
