certain further maybe pilot
I think you have to do certain things in the pilot to get your network's attention - to break through... So maybe you push a little further in the first show.
finesse material weekly weeks
When you do a play, or even a movie, you have weeks to finesse your character. You really understand why they do what they do. In TV, you get new material weekly about your character.
editors people film
I've seen people who stink, but the film editor shows them just where they didn't stink. But if you're empty and manipulative on stage, it's clear.
thinking people waiting
I didn't want people to think I'm just in the movies, where you make money and wait around for 13 hours before you get to do 20 minutes of work.
actors sweeney
As far as actors go, you're not going to find many ballplayers better than me.

Hire the best people, and trust what you hired them to do.
running people hanging-around
I like hanging around the set and learning how people do things, how the set runs.
foxes way shows
I really like the way Fox handles their shows.
real believe luck
I believe in luck. My luck's real streaky.
anybody medical patience says seek
To anybody who says to me, 'I'm in character,' I say, 'You should be in an asylum.' If you don't know that you're pretending, then you should really seek medical help. I don't have patience for that stuff.
good
What really makes it fun for an actor is when the script is good.
certain guy people time typecast
I got typecast early in my career as the guy who is very intense. Once you get into a certain mold, people see you that way, as much as it's disproved time and again.
basically bit encouraged high involved jocks school teacher theater
I had a teacher senior year in high school. He was a theater teacher, and he basically was a little bit like 'High School Musical.' He kind of encouraged the jocks to get involved with the plays. I did it as kind of a senior year lark.
director hollywood movies
The problem with most Hollywood movies is they don't give the director enough control.
