As actors, if you get a pilot on HBO or on USA, your odds are good that it's going to get picked up.

I'm just ah, actually developing a tv show for HBO, and I'm directing a film this summer, and actually I'm doing some live shows out in western Canada.

I'd love to do a Western.

I'm going to start work on developing a series for HBO, because I'm naturally given to episodic stories of considerable length. And I won't have to listen to complaints about how wordy and long my work is if you can watch it on your telephone on the subway: You can make it conform to your day as if it were a book.

I've thought about doing other dramatic roles besides westerns, but I grew up in the West and I know the West.

From an actor's point of view, you never really like to hope that anything will go beyond the pilot. I'd always say to my agent every time I filmed a pilot, 'Great! Well, I'll see you at pilot season.'

I'm an HBO subscriber, and I watch a bunch of great shows on HBO.

I love westerns. I've always wanted to do a western.

I would love to do a Western someday. Every time I watch any of them, I'm so envious.

The first thing I did for TV was a pilot for CBS.
