It's far too nerve-racking at this hour of the morning.

I didn't know that the show would be received the way that it has been, ... I couldn't be more thrilled about it. But it's been a surprise.

I think people can relate to a lot of these characters. They say, 'Oh, I am sort of like that, and my kids go through stuff like that, and I had to deal with that.' And then Tony Soprano goes and kills somebody.

Not one, no, not even a single one. ... People have been shot for less on my show.

We have inadvertantly created the perfect working environment. They make me want to be better than last time.

You get to follow the same character through a lot of the same ups and downs that you go through in your own life. I can't imagine any place else where you get to do that and what a thrill it is. It's not about finding the character any more. It's about actually being in it and going where ever she goes.

I spent a long time doing independent films, and I?d like to think I?m not getting cast because of the show, but because I?m right for the role.

Absolutely, in a show like this. David is really unpredictable. He's not a rule follower.

I have believed him each time before, and I really believe him this time. I think he's done, by the fact that they were only able to squeeze eight more out of him.
