When you get on a comedy show, people assume you're a comedian. I'd say I'm more of a comedy nerd.

There's no private side to acting, which some people find hard. I've drawn inspiration from athletes. They manage to be themselves under the pressure of public scrutiny, and they have it much harder - they have to perform with people yelling at them.

I was a bouncer for, like, three months in Boston until everybody figured out that I should never be a bouncer. I'm so soft. I just have no aggression in me.

It's kind of a crazy thing with kid actors because a lot of them get hired without people really knowing if they're good or not. They get hired for the way they look at a really young age. You also have your fingers crossed around kid actors... because the lessons they learn on set aren't always the best. You can really get whatever you want.

I'm not very romantic. My idea of romance is more practical - like washing the car.

And I watch 'Saturday Night Live' religiously, I have since I was a little boy. I watch it basically like one of my favorite sports teams.

My favourite game is wiffle ball, a fake version of baseball with a plastic ball and bat that's really for kids.

Comedy can be fun no matter what you're playing. It always has the potential to be a blast.

There's lots of problem solving in any marriage, but when you have this collective goal that is a human being, it's an inspiring rally point.

I'm glad I had to wait until my 40s for success. I was not a mature young man and would probably have gone off the rails.
