I came from a musical theater background, and I got an audition for The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, as the janitor character, and I went in and took it in a different direction than they had intended and it put me in that world. And kids multi-cam shows are basically musical theater on television, like The Carol Burnett Show, all that same level of energy on camera, and I just love that stuff. So, yeah, I kinda lived in that world for a long time, so going back to doing adult fare has been a real treat. I’d love to do more of it.
