The Things I Enjoy Most As I

Some Actors, And Especially The Younger Actors, They Come Into The Job With A Lot Of Attention On How They Behave And Everything When They're Not Working. Sometimes That Can Be Unfortunate Because The Work Call Is Pretty Intense And The Preparation For It. If Your Focus Is There, Then The Actual Doing Of The Job Will Be Fun And Enjoyable. But If You're So Involved In Trying To Be Interesting And A Character And Everything When You're Not Working, It Can Get In The Way And People Get Goofed Up.

I've Done A Number Of These My Name Is Earl Shows. I Play Earl's Father. It's A Half-hour Comedy. And I'll Be Doing Some More Of Those. I Have A Movie Coming Out That I Did With Misha Barton, Called Don't Fade Away.

And When I've Been Away From My Family And Friends, I Have Felt Good Hearing Some Of Those Old Songs.

I've Always Seen Making Movies As A Bunch Of Little Births And Deaths. We Come In. We Don't Know Anybody Or Very Few People That We Work With, But The Nature Of The Job Pulls Us Into A Sort Of An Intimate Kind Of Relationship And Communication And Then They're Gone And It's Kind Of Melancholy. You Miss That Guy But Then Suddenly You're Working With Him Again Maybe Somewhere.

Sometimes It's Hard To Know Why Networks Will Stick With Something. Sometimes The Ratings Won't Happen, But There's Excitement At The Network, So They'll Stay With The Show.
