Boone County is a much tougher game for us because it's a rivalry game. Unfortunately, we've been talking about playing a full 80 minutes all year and we always seen to take five or ten minutes off. When you do that, anything can happen.
Part of the beauty of the show in a way is that he's not perfect, but you can always count on him to do the right thing in a pinch. That's why he inspires people and inspires me.
The next day, we all met in Aaron Spelling's office and read the script out loud. It was pretty magical - as if we'd known each other all our lives.
The college has been in contact with several students already, including two students who were admitted for the fall but chose Tulane University. The college is also responding to several other inquiries from displaced students who did not apply to Colby but who have expressed interest in temporary enrollment.
I took the role because it's rare to read a script that makes me laugh and cry, and it spoke to my own religious feelings, as well as giving me a chance to draw on my experience as a parent. Accepting it was a no-brainer.
I'd be happy to do Star Trek again, if the writing was right.
The WB really had no profile then. (Producer) Aaron Spelling hadn't done a show like this in a long time.
I don't think this show would have come to me 10 years ago. It continues to be this wonderful miracle.
Much of this season is about her growing up, because she was 6 when we started. I don't think this season is going to differ much, though, and that's what has kept us going. We're not a high concept show that has found an audience by stunts or weird guest stars.
I might be in an airport, late or angry with a ticket person, and I'm going to sort of check myself, because part of me is seen as Eric Camden. We all need as much help as we can get. It's a role model to me as much as to anybody else.
Don't try to start a career in LA, unless money is all you're interested in.
The script was just the best I'd read in a long time and I love the humor, which I wasn't expecting, and I like the fact that my six year old daughter can see the show without being, you know, protected from it.
