When I First Started I Was Always

I Love Doing Action Films That Do Challenge Me Physically. I Feel It's My Job To Keep My Stamina Up And Be As Physically Fit As Possible, So That I Can Just Jump In And Do It. It Takes Its Toll Sometimes And It's Hard Work, But I Love That.

As An Actor, It Made Me Realize A Really Important Lesson. I Didn't Have To Put Any Spin On The Ball As Rita [in Dexter]. All I Had To Do Was Speak. And There Was Such Simplicity In That As An Actor. With Debra, I Was Trying To Put A Square Peg Into A Round Hole, And It Just Didn't Work, But In My Mind, Because I Had To Work So Hard On It, I Was, Like, "oh, This Is Acting!" But That's Not Acting.

No One Ever Asks Me About Breeze O'rourke! I Did The Pilot For[payne] Right After Jawbreaker, Or At Least Right Around The Same Time, And It Was An Americanized Version Of Fawlty Towers. That Was The First Time I Worked With John Larroquette, And It Was Definitely Not The Last Time.

So It's Nice To Know That Rita Had That Impact, And It Was Nice To End A Character On A High Note Like That. But, Again, In The Moment... I Always Say, Nobody Was More Devastated Than Me [from Rita's Death In Dexter]!

I Still Have People Coming Up To Me, And It Was, What, Six Or Seven Years Ago When That Finale Aired? And They Tell Me Who They Were Watching With, What Their Emotional Reaction Was, And How They Were Devastated For Weeks About [rita's Death In Dexter].
