My Most Romantic Job: I Was A

I Think They [tv Productions] Were Just Kind Of Drying Up. I'd Done A Couple Of Episodes, But Nothing Was Happening. So I Went To Vancouver To Visit A Buddy And See What Was Going On, And That Year Was Crazy. Vancouver Was On Fire At That Point. It Was All These Stephen J. Cannell Productions - The Commish Being One Of Them - And In One I Was A Bartender, And I Think I Had Five Lines.

I Made Lost World In September Of '91, And By The End Of That Year, I Was Living In Toronto.

I Got Michael Caine's Book, Acting In Film, And I Read It On The Plane, Desperately Trying To Glean Information From Him About How To Adapt My Craft, Which Was Actually Very Helpful.

[jack Nash] Was Very Different Than Anything I'd Played. In Fact, There's A Scene I Have In A Tent With Louis Ferreira, Who Just Did An Episode Of Travelers. He Was In The Fourth Episode Of Travelers Playing Another Team Leader, And We Really Have It Out, Not Unlike The Way We Did In The Tent In Andromeda.

I Think There's A Certain Objectivity That Comes From Being Canadian. You're Partly British And Partly American; You Have A Good Bird's-eye View Of Both Countries. So Much Of The Comedy That Comes Out Of Canada Is Impersonation - It's Less 'look At Me' Than It Is 'look At Me Playing Other People.
