I think that if Hollywood has a problem, it constantly underestimates the intelligence and integrity of fans.

I think it's good to be passionate, and I think it's even good to be obsessed about a show. Why not? I think it's great!

why-not passionate thinking

If a show is good, it helps people learn about themselves, in some way and in some function. Whatever the genre is, if it's executed well, audiences grow and learn from it, and that's where their passion and enthusiasm comes from.

I think that if Hollywood has a problem, it constantly underestimates the intelligence and integrity of fans. You can be passionate about a show, but I don't think that people are obsessed to the point where it's so manic that they lose themselves and they lose a sense of their center of morality.

Not knowing what's happening, from script to script, as an actor and as a character, lends itself to the same tension and anxiety of not knowing what's happening.

When you do a film, you start to get the character, and then it disappears for a year before it's released and you get feedback.

Television is interesting, in that the pace is quicker and you can see your work more quickly than with movies. And then, with the added social media aspect, you can access that relationship to the fans directly and you have control of the content of what you say, your perspective, your opinions and your ideas.

As physicians nurses and public health officials engage hesitant parents to encourage them to vaccinate, it’s important to understand the full spectrum of reasons why parents are concerned about the risks of vaccines, when the precise reasons are clear there can be a respectful and effective conversation about the balance of benefits and risks.

As we have more and more years of the Affordable Care Act that have provided expanded coverage for millions of Americans, it’s going to be important to understand how that coverage translates into positive health, coverage through insurance plans and programs like Medicaid is most( needed) when Reuters Health is at Reuters Health worst and we need to be hospitalized.

This impact was n’t limited to urban areas or population centers, or safety net hospitals.

It is very difficult to put a specific number on how much vaccine refusals reduce a community’s protection against disease, what this latest comprehensive review illustrates is that individuals who refuse vaccines not only put themselves at risk for disease.

The time to respond to bullying, and to support victims of bullying, is during adolescence when it occurs, don’t wait to see whether it gets better ; make sure the teen bullying victim knows that he/she is not to blame.

I find the trick to playing a villain is that you can't be bad for the sake of being bad. It has to be rooted in some sort of heartbreak.

I'm very opinionated, and when you're put in a position where you're getting the storylines that are not necessarily what's cranking at the back of your mind, or digging at the potential of your character and you have to sit on your hands, that's frustrating.

I'm one of those people where, the more responsibility I have, the better I become. The more I rise up to it. The less responsibility I have, the more I can easily devolve.

Initially, I had started doing theater, where the actor has a direct relationship to the audience. So, moving into film and television disconnected me. When you do a film, you start to get the character, and then it disappears for a year before it's released and you get feedback.

To become a villain, you had to have become disillusioned, and in order to become disillusioned you had to have been passionate about something you believed in that was shaken and ripped from your grasp as a protagonist in that stage of your life, leaving you disillusioned with God, if you will.

I can't say that I have ever been fanatical about a show. To be honest, I'm not a big TV watcher. When I do watch TV, I watch the news.

show say big news

One of the reasons I do like 'Cult' is that it plays along the same vibe as the movie 'Seven,' which I absolutely love. There was a period of cinema in the mid-'90s that I was a huge fan of, with 'Heat' and 'Seven' and the Tarantino era. If I've ever been fanatical, it was about those films, back in the day.
