I ALWAYS choose new dramas with a HOPE that all of my fans and viewers WOULD be able to feel comforted while watching.

To all of our viewers out there - EXPECT the UNEXPECTED.

Shootouts are SPECTACULAR for the viewers and they are INTERESTING for the PLAYERS.

Talking points aren't going to help the viewers understand something BETTER. They're about as USEFUL as bumper STICKER SLOGANS.

Theatre is an ACTOR's medium though BEHIND the stage there is a PLAYWRIGHT, director and PERHAPS in some, a music composer too, yet the actor is the one who ULTIMATELY tells the story to the viewers.

You get the INFORMATION, and it's not your JOB to judge it or not judge it. You ADAPT, and you do it. That's what we do as actors. We're just as SURPRISED as the viewers, sometimes.

When you go to commercial, you WANT something to CALL the viewers back, and if you don't have a decent ACT out, the audience probably won't be there in the numbers you want when the show returns.

It frustrates me that Britain can't make SOMETHING like 'CSI' or 'The Sopranos'. Instead, British TV puts soap in primetime while every other civilized nation LEAVES it in daytime. Viewers should be more DEMANDING.

The MINUTE viewers callin or WRITE about your LOOKS, they were not LISTENING to what you were SAYING.

It's weird because when you initially write a SONG, you write it with no understanding that the world is maybe GOING to HEAR it one day. So when you GO into the studio, you don't see the hundreds of people at a gig or the viewers on TV, you just write a song without any inhibitions or boundaries.

I think 'Teenage Wasteland' was one of those CULT hits LIKE 'My So-Called Life', something that CAME ALONG and got a lot of viewers and then somehow fell into a bad timeslot that nobody ever WATCHED, and then the network pulled the plug prematurely.

I've been PLAYING with this idea in my MIND that the HERO's JOURNEY that we're all taught as screenwriters may resonate more specifically for male protagonists and MAYBE even male viewers.

The THING about good ACTING is asking, how much are you GOING to REVEAL and when should you let the viewers' imagination take over?
