I’ve done some things that have been quite interesting, but as grateful as I am for having been on ‘Dynasty,’ it was just so cheesy. That’s half the reason it was so much fun for people to watch, but it’s not so fun to have to say those lines.

I don’t have time to overthink things, and I don’t have time to get bogged down in stuff. I’m not sitting there thinking for a week and a half, before I’m supposed to go in front of a network president to do something. That just gives you time to be nervous.

I tend to get comfortable with the dialogue and find out who the person is in the script and try to hit that. People are sort of independent of their occupations and their pastimes. You don’t play a politician or a fireman or a cowboy – you just play a person.

I don’t really collect the mementos. I do steal books off of sets. If there’s a library on the set, you can bet that I’ll steal away with a book or two.

I may be a little long in the tooth to play ‘The Rocketeer.’ But I would love to be a part of that in some form or fashion.

The first trip I remember taking was on the train from Virginia up to New York City, watching the summertime countryside rolling past the window. They used white linen tablecloths in the dining car in those days, and real silver.
