My second year of Ryerson, I still lived at my folks' place. I went to the attic to find some prop for a play I was doing. And I found a scrapbook dedicated to my father's years at Ryerson as an actor. He never mentioned it.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I did a film a couple years ago called 'Who Is Clark Rockefeller?' It was a role that I was really proud of that I wish more people could go back and rediscover.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
It's a different world now. Guest-starring on a TV show is not some indication that things aren't going right anymore.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I loved working with Cary Elwes, who is in 'The Princess Bride', one of my favorite films. He's a great guy.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I feel like 'Travelers' is something I can legitimately say, 'You're going to love this.' I think then people will accept me as a different thing. And if they don't, it's fun trying.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
Because I had three years on 'Perception,' I think I succeeded in showing I can do other things, and I can create a different audience, even from people who loved 'Will & Grace.'
Quote by -Eric McCormack
Shelter dogs should be adopted into loving homes, not used in cruel experiments. That's why I support the Cruelty Free International global dog campaign.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I think it's about finding the character you want to play and the people you want to work with.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I would come home with my friend Bill, and we would sit and watch 'Get Smart.' And I was Agent 44, and he was Agent 85. And it was a fantastic - and all we wanted to do was sleep with Barbara Feldon.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
If you can last long enough, in success, you have to get really creative and come up with new stuff.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I understudied Colm Feore quite a bit in '85 and '86 - 'Persephone' and 'The Boys from Syracuse,' too - and that was great, great training for me. He was and he is an amazing theatre actor.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I always kind of dreamed locally - I never really ever dream that I would be south of the border; I dreamed about being a theatre star in Toronto, and maybe I'd do Stratford and regional stuff. I always thought it would be a slow growth.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
It's very, very hard to create something that is big these days because you have niche markets - and, you don't necessarily need to be big; the show is specifically created for a small group of people. You know, if it's on the USA network, well, then a small group of people is fine.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
It's very strange - several years ago, I was in the running for the 'Young Frankenstein' musical. Kristin Chenoweth was going to do it, but then she backed out because she got 'Pushing Daisies' on TV, and then, the next day, I went in for my final-final audition, and I saw Megan Mullally standing there.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I didn't want to do a lawyer. I didn't want to do forensics. I didn't want to work in an ER.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
If we're karaoke-ing, I'm as likely to do Aerosmith as I am 'Sweeney Todd'.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
Show-wise, I love 'Little Shop' and 'Big River', 'Avenue Q,' and 'Spring Awakening'.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
When I was 16, I'd ping pong between AC/DC and Barry Manilow without any sense of irony.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I needed to start pulling at this other sort of funnier, lighter side. So I auditioned for everything. I auditioned for 'Friends,' even.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
This 'historical record' will exist, flawed as it is, in hundreds of years. What will that tell the future? How accurate are we reporting our lives?
Quote by -Eric McCormack
Every day, there's something that makes you go, 'Is this Funny or Die?' That can't be a real headline.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
On Netflix and other streaming services, they're taking risks that are based on 'Come with us! Come with us!' and the audience does.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
We're definitely hoping 'Travelers' attracts more than just solely the sci-fi audience, too. There are so many elements here. I think this will be a show that women like, because there's a lot of unlikely romance in it between people who were in love 300 years from now, but they're in different bodies.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I find that with every script I get, I go, 'Who knew this? This is so cool!'
Quote by -Eric McCormack
With these scripts and these writers, so much of it is done for me. Because we don't just throw words around: we make sure the audience understands.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
Particularly in television, we can stereotype ourselves. You realize that we all have a lot of voices in our head. We have angry voices, we have voices of doubt, and we have moments of strength.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
We see people talking to themselves all the time. We always have. Particularly if they're homeless people or at all questionable, there's a sense of, 'That guy's crazy!' I see that now with a much more empathetic eye.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I've had to take roles that on purpose were not Will-like so that someone like 'The Hollywood Reporter' would write, 'McCormack shows great range; no Will Truman here.'
Quote by -Eric McCormack
I think most actors go into the business thinking, 'I can play everything. Why can't I play a black woman? Just give me a chance.' Then you grow up and realize it's probably better that they cast an actual black woman.
Quote by -Eric McCormack
That was the only trepidation I had about 'Will & Grace.' It had nothing to do with the sexuality of the character. It was more, 'This could be the next 7 to 10 years of my life.'
