- On Alan Ruck's Emmy nomnation snub:
“I was like, ‘Oh, my God, this is so cool-where the hell is Alan Ruck’s nomination?’” I've been waiting on him. He’s just so extraordinary in the show.”
- When filming season 1, he didn't have a proper grasp of Roman until episode 6:
"I had a pretty good sense of Roman from the beginning, but it's not complete until I get a real sense of who all the other characters are."
- How he is handling getting recognized on the street:
"It's mostly fine. Most people's instincts when they do like a double-take, the first thing to do is they reach for their phone and that camera comes out and they have to [indicates taking a photo]. Then there's the awkward moment of saying something like, “Hey, did you take a picture?” when they will inevitably say no. And then I feel like an ass because I was assuming that they’re taking pictures of me. But the only part that actually bothers me is that people do that same exact thing when I'm out with my kids. That's just obviously a violation and I don't think people know it. I can say that because when I confront people about it, you can see in their face, they didn't realize they were doing something horrible. Like, could you imagine if I just went to a playground and started taking pictures of your kids? You think “there’s the guy from the show,” but I'm holding my daughter while I'm trying to order a bagel. And this guy is like three feet from me taking a picture of me. In that one particular case, I just got mad. I started yelling at the guy in the bagel place. Immediately, he saw what he did and he's like, “I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.”"
