I love doing Supernatural so much, its hard to pick a favorite experience. I loved the episode where we were chasing the monster you could only see when you're drunk. Playing drunk and actually being drunk in a couple of scenes was fun. I liked souther comfort because Jared and I had so many scenes together for the first time.

Breaking Bad, Im really proud of that episode. It was a 6 minute cold open with no cuts. Doing that scene was a dance. We wanted to audience to think I was a cop, then doubt it, then think it, then doubt it...The New York Times rated it one of the 10 best moments of the series. That made me really happy.

Thank you for saying that. You know, I dont really play the Muscular Dystrophy part. I try to play the human part. I think, how would Billy feel about whatever the situation is? Ive said before, I think people are merely the sum of their experiences. The muscular dystrophy is obviously a huge part of who he is, but he's basically a regular guy who wants all the same crap as everyone else. The physical limitations are the hardest to deal with, but when the camera cuts, I can stand up. That fact never leaves me and I know I have a certain responsibility to the dignity of all who have MD. I also have a responsibility to make everyone laugh. I think Im able to ride that line pretty well. I keep a keen guard on how Billy is portrayed, but everyone get their turn to be the butt of the joke on Legit. And, the writers make sure Billy gets his. Its only fair.

That is a popular misconception. DJ is my actual name. Ive never spun a record. Ive been an actor for 13 years and people still think that I used to or still do spin.

The New Guy really wasn't a teen sex film. No one has sex in the movie. Its more an anti-bullying/bully revenge movie. I did it because I was bullied mercilessly in school. I used to think about killing myself often in my teen years to escape it, that's how bad it got. Thank God Im afraid of pain or Id be a goner. I did The New Guy to exorcize some of those demons and to give others who are bullied 90 minutes of escape and fantasy. And, because they offered it to me, it was a lead in a major motion picture and they paid me a crap load for it.

I have an 11 year old Mercedes. It only has 43K miles on it because most of my work has been on location. When it was 10 years old, I started putting aside what a monthly car payment would be. I use that money to buy art. I recently bought my first Warhol. Its smarter than spending your money on a flashy new car. A car is a huge part of your image in LA. That is something I choose not to involve myself in.

I will drive that car until the wheels fall off, then hopefully buy another and drive that until it dies.
