Comedy and drama are both challenging to me.

My sister is a nurse and saves people's lives.

I wanted more in depth ideas about the character and it never came.

It makes you realise that people are the same wherever you go.

Everything has an end.

That's sort of what I like about this character is that he's not the good guy, he's not truly the bad guy.

Comedy and drama are both challenging to me.

It's not that fun to just play a villain, without any reasoning behind it.

I'm trying to do the kind of projects that I want to see in the theatre.

L.A. to me is not really an attractive place.

And I've been lucky in that I haven't had another job besides acting in the last five years.

It seems there's a sliding scale between the money they spend on a movie and its creativity.

I really enjoy the people. I find them to be better educated and wittier.

My heritage is English, so I'm proud to be back here.

You can be in an acting class all you want, but you don't fully learn until you get off that stage and in front of a camera.

There's one site where you can buy pictures of me for five bucks a pop.

Certainly, when I walk into an audition, a lot of people already know who I am.

We both have a great loyalty to it, and I think that it's important to give it our best shot.

Supporting characters add depth to a story, and great actors leave their imprint with the audience.

I'm living in L.A. but my heart's in Vancouver.

I would like to look back on my career and be proud of what I've done.

When I'm on my deathbed, I'll hopefully be able to count more friends than parts that I had.

At Christmas, 'It's a Wonderful Life' makes me cry in exactly the same places every time, even though I know it's coming.

So, I completely and utterly support David and Gillian's decision to go to Los Angeles, but I think that Vancouver is the perfect location for the show.

I just wanted to act. I didn't want to do anything else.

It changed my life in a lot of ways - before I got that role I was just going from job to job, not really having enough money to be able to do what I wanted to do.

I think somebody who speaks the language is going to notice immediately that I'm not Russian.

When you're doing a series like this, you're constantly looking for new ways to excite your audience.

Two shows at once is crazy, but I love it.

I think everyone has some fascination with what's outside our existence. It's a constant journey to find the truth.

I've spent so much time the last seven, eight years in Los Angeles, away from my family, away from my friends, away from the city that is my favourite place to be and I just want to come here and have a proper life.

I don't care what TV show you work on, even a movie for that matter, it's all about time and money eventually.

My goal is to be living back in Canada as soon as I can, hopefully somewhere in the Gulf Islands.

I felt that K wasn't getting a fair shake anyway.

It's certainly more interesting for me as an actor, but I think it's also more interesting for the audience to see three-dimensional characters, rather than just a bad guy or a good guy.

We went to the British Museum, and I was looking up my family in the books - pages and pages on it.

We both have a great loyalty to it and I think that its important to give it our best shot.

I mean, all alternative comedy is are comedians that have being doing it for so long, for so long, that they were relaxed enough to start becoming personal on stage.

The kinds of shows that seem to work now, the comedy shows, are those which require very little attention. They're superficial and I like articulate comedy.

A lot of people have gotten into comedy because of certain influences in their lives or events that were painful, and I really have wracked my brain to figure it out. I pretty much have had a normal childhood. Maybe it was too normal.

I grew up wanting to make movies, and along the way I suddenly found that I had a career doing comedy.

I really enjoy comedy. It's a real challenge.

I've mainly been in dramas, so this is one of my first comedy kind of performances in Cecil B. Demented.

Well I sure had been looking for a comedy for years without any success.

Comedy is so hard; it's so much harder than drama. The pacing of it, the energy of it.

Stand-up comedy and poverty. Those were my two main endeavors.

It seems like when I first started, people got into comedy because they wanted to be good comedians.

It is really hard to do comedy; it takes a lot of energy and focus. It's rather like music: It's a lot of hitting notes precisely.
