script
My roots are in stand-up, and stand-up is very freeing. There's no script involved; you just fly.
abstract explore humor opposed side sitcom stuff typical usual
I'd like to explore the more abstract side of people's minds, as opposed to the usual sitcom stuff. I don't want to do the typical sitcom-type humor. I'd want to do stuff like go bowling with pineapples.
buffet crab great love whenever
I love seafood. Whenever I'm in Las Vegas, I love going to the Bellagio buffet because they have these great king crab legs.
I'm an American citizen now, but I will always have Canadian pride.
hot
It's going to be a lot of fun, hot and steamy, just the way I like it,
grew guy guys hilarious pleasure super vile watching work
It was such a pleasure to work with Eugene Levy. What a treat. That's a guy I grew up watching as a kid. Guys like that, they were hilarious and didn't have to be super vile or X-rated.
ask blue inner isolated pine skies touch
I think being isolated like that let me really get in touch with my inner voice. I was able to ask myself without any distractions, 'What do you want to do with your life? Where do you want to go? What do you want to be?' And with nothing but blue skies and pine nuts, I was able to see the light.

Executives and studios really like to have control over their product. They panic or they're not secure enough to trust in the powers of really amazing improv people.
flower garden thinking
I think people should maybe just go out into the garden and watch a ladybug crawl across a flower and relax their mind. That's about all you need to know about life, I think.
believe mind looks
Everything's a conspiracy and everything's not a conspiracy. You could look at this planet and go, "This is all a conspiracy. God made this to test us to see if we'll use the nukes." You can let your mind believe anything.
sex jumping people
I love the theater of the mind because you can go anywhere. You can say anything, and you pull people in. [You] can be jumping out of a window or riding a cow or having bubble-wrap sex or spraying your body with Pam and sliding out of your chair.
fun laughter cartoon
I just tried to create a life for myself that's full of fun and fantasy and things that equal laughter. My life's been cartoons and comedy and acting, and it's just been a fun life.
