I think you just have to take everything that happens on a TV show with a grain of salt. You sign up for a show for six years having zero idea where they're going to go with the character, so you just have to get on the ride of the show and go with wherever they take you.

The reason I've never gone for pilot season even as a younger actor, and wouldn't entertain that sort of thing now, is the idea of signing a piece of paper that binds me for six or seven years.

You do a show to be a hit and hopefully run a couple of years.

If they'll have me and the show does well, I could do this another two or three years.

When you accept a role in a pilot, you automatically sign up for five years. You think it's scary to walk down the aisle? Try signing a five-year contract for a show you may not want to be part of down the road.

When you start as an actor, you can only hope you'll be able to act at all - let alone on a show that lasts seven seasons.

I live in Las Vegas with my family, and I never realized what my parents would go through to get me to a five-minute audition.

My dad never told me that when you audition, you might not get the role. He wanted to wait until my first disappointment to tell me.

Any time you audition and get it, you earned it.

In L.A., you constantly go on auditions, and you're usually not what they're looking for - you get used to going back and back to the same show, and nothing happens.
