In restaurants in my Brooklyn neighborhood, I always ask for a doggie bag to bring the leftovers home.
Since I don't have much time to cook, I tend to cook in bulk and eat leftovers.
The first time I read 'Leftovers,' I didn't get it at all.
In my experience as an actor over so many years, I don't know when I have been touched so deeply on so many levels as I have been by 'The Leftovers' in my three years there. It is a profound exploration of life, of grief, of loss.
I think 'The Leftovers' is one of the most extraordinary shows that has ever seen the light of day.
My wife cooks. I can't cook. I can remix leftovers pretty good, though.
The most remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served the family nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found.
I think if people stick with 'The Leftovers,' it's a very rewarding viewing experience. I wanted to be part of that - and what a great cast we got. I wanted to be one of those actors, in that show!
I really have the good fortune that the actors who work with me on 'The Leftovers' are thoughtful, hard working, open people and generous people.
I rarely get recognized, and whenever I do, it has to do with 'The Leftovers' because it came into someone's life at a particularly important time for them - if they were dealing with grief or loss or whatever tragedy - and they just caught it. And there is no rhyme or reason to the kind of person it is.
