I enjoyed the drama of 'One Tree Hill,' and the opportunity to be one of the comedic aspects, initially.

I do believe that we're in a true golden era of television, and I think it started with 'Hill Street.'

The best comedy, I feel, comes in a drama because it balances each other out.

The older I've gotten, the more the need to exert comedy no matter how tragic a character I may be portraying because they are essentials for presenting truth.

In New York, the street adventures are incredible. There are a thousand stories in a single block. You see the stories in the people's faces. You hear the songs immediately. Here in Los Angeles, there are less characters because they're all inside automobiles.

For me, it's nice to have a character who can never find love and have that be the running theme, but I think when you open the door to a story line about relationships, you open the door to another realm of comedy.

I don't hold any candle for drama versus comedy.

If you're doing a drama that has some comedic elements you can't forget that it's primarily a very serious film that has some light relief.

I had to choose, I'd be so sad. They are flip sides of the same coin. I love both comedy and drama.
