What was Toby Huss like while the cameras were off? Artie was by far my favorite character and I remember the directors commentary on one episode talking about how the other child actors' parents seemed uncomfortable with him around their kids. Did he stay in character most of time? Ever serve as your superhero for off-set antics?
And I'd just like to say thanks - As a weird kid growing up, Pete & Pete was one of my favorite shows, and it really helped me with the recurring theme of encouraging kids to be yourself, however weird that may be.
Also, with how often an attempt at a "tough little kid" role comes off as awkward and stupid, I gotta give you props for how much of a badass Little Pete was. Your interrogation of Lou the Barber in "Saturday" was absolute gold.
