It would have been fun to have played Tim Robbins' role in Bull Durham.

Even in college I tended to get cast in the comedies more. It was what I liked doing.

I wasn't really driven to be an actor or anything, but in college I decided to study acting, much to my parents' disappointment. I attended Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers where Bill Esper was, and that is where I really got hooked on the art of acting, and, almost, the chemistry of acting.

Tisch has a great film program and a great acting program, but they are segregated; you don't really intertwine. My peers knew I liked acting, so they'd be like, 'Go get that guy Gubler. He'll be in your student film.' I was in the same building. I became their go-to guy. So I left NYU having been in probably one thousand short films.

A lot of actors said they hated the studio system, but I loved it. It was like a college; it was a great place to learn.

University was a chance to people-watch and to mix with people from all various walks of life, which as an actor is a great experience because you get to observe people.

I'd really like to do a movie again with Tim Robbins and Clint Eastwood. They were really good guys.

Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.

I really was a terrible actor. I did it for years in my twenties because it was like being at university again.
