I've never had a series that's gone past 12 episodes. ”

I started out as a musician. Although I always wanted to have a dual career, I fell into the TV and movie business more strongly and more quickly. ”

I started my career, actually, maybe the first 10, 11 years, playing the bad boyfriend with the gun. And I got ill with that and moved on, for some reason, to playing cops all the time. ”

The end of times has always been a fascination. But post 9/11, pretty much everybody will admit to having it on their minds more frequently than when they were a kid. ”

I was watching Burt Reynolds movies when I was a kid, going, 'That's what I want to do.' ”

Actually shooting a 3-D movie is not different at all than making a 2-D one. You never really notice that you're making a 3-D movie. The terminology used around the set is a little bit different, but other than that, you'd never know. ”

I'd rather be busy than not. ”

All I want out of a television show is that I be intrigued and entertained. ”

I can do without a television or a telephone, I think. ”

It's nice to be able to play a guy who gets to say all the things that you don't get to say in real life. ”
