I made some friends who are still friends, and this is the city of my birth. I love living here when there's a reason to, other than just moving here. I still don't like the winters here, but it's an amazing city and I love it.
Sometimes we have to look to other performers to kind of spark us, but there is something kind of ""old home week"" about us. So I've never really felt the battery run down on these shows.
As far as directing, yeah, I'd like to do that. But you've got to spend at least a year, year-and-a-half doing that. It's got to be something you really love. To direct a sequel to somebody else's work is not interesting to me. To do a teen comedy, I don't think is really something I'd want to spend a year of my life doing at this point.
Even when there are banalities, they're usually kind of benign banalities.
