I look for characters that offer me opportunities to explore some aspect of the human condition. I think a lot of actors would say that and would look for that. I've been lucky enough to find projects that let me do that.
From Tim Daly
'Wings' was a blessing, but it was also very difficult. Whenever you do situation comedy, no matter how excellent the execution - and we had a great cast and great writers - but the format is somewhat limited.
'Wings' offered me the rare opportunity to be a full-time dad and a working actor for eight years.
'Superman' was a total accident. The producers of the animated series were having a hard time finding someone to read the character. I was brought in through a connection and, I think, out of desperation.
I know this sounds stupid, but in some ways, the way I look is a drawback.
I think I'm a lot more complicated than my looks might indicate.
My natural self is John Goodman. If I relaxed, I'd be him.
What I've realized, and had to become comfortable with, is that I'm just, I don't think, a star. I'm an actor.
I don't think I gave 'Wings' its due. I was young. I wanted to light the world on fire.
Everybody wants to have their 'Breaking Bad.' It went to Bryan Cranston. It couldn't have happened to a better guy or a better actor.
