“None of the people are what you think when you first meet them, who you think they are, and they turn out to be maybe something a little different.”

But when I’m done with the job I can take it off pretty easy, it’s like a suit of clothes, put on something else.

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.

Part of the western movement is this desire that we, Americans, have to keep pressing on.

I also like to garden. I grow things, vegetables, flowers… I particularly like orchids. I raise orchids.

I was coming into a situation I didn’t really know much about, and now, after a couple of years, the character’s kind of mellowed and gotten comfortable working at the command center and very comfortable with his troops.

On the other side, if Im playing a good guy, then he has some problems too. Thats what makes people interesting, in life and in fiction.

I like to try to make the characters I play be as human as possible.

I think, I would guess most people keep secrets.

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.

As an actor, I travel around a lot and live in a lot of hotels, and many times I’ve been in a town where the only entertainment to be had is what you find in the hotel bar or lobby.

Second, this epic tale allows the audience to actually listen to the Native Americans and receive their wisdom.

I appeared several times on Atlantis while I was doing Stargate. And they’ve mentioned to me before that they’d like me do some, but right now I have nothing specific to report.

My favorite roles usually have to do with the story, if it’s a good story I usually enjoy doing the character.

The things I enjoy most as I watch the movie are the things that came through without even thinking.

The SG-1 franchise has been so successful for the network, that they always want to keep it open, an option to do it again in some way, whether that’s a movie or a series, or whatever.

Yeah, I’m very impressed with Lifetime, this is the first time I’ve worked with them. I really like the kind of programming that they’re into, so I’m hoping that I will.
