There Are Two Sides To Being Pigeonholed. There's, 'oh, No, I'm Going To Be Chandler For The Rest Of My Life,' But There's Also The Fact That Getting To Play Chandler Opened Up Doors To Me. It's Now My Job To Find Things That Shake It Up A Little Bit.

I've Been Accused Of Not Really Paying Attention To A Sentence Unless My Name Comes Up In It Twice.

I Got Sober Because I Was Worried I Was Going To Die Next Year.

I Learned A Valuable Lesson Doing 'mr. Sunshine,' Which Is That I Didn't Want To Be In Charge Because It's Too Much. Being In Charge And Acting In Every Scene Was Just Too Difficult. It's Like Eating Dinner In A Moving Golf Cart Every Night.
