Its so fun to see an old-fashioned murder mystery movie being made today.

[Laughs] You mean a movie with a narrative and interesting plot twist?

Not a lot of explosions and shit?

What made you sign on?It was the easiest thing that Ive ever done.

The very first thing he said to me was I saw your movie,Zachariah.

Honestly, I just couldnt believe my good fortune to get ahold of such a great piece of material.

Although, you could make an argument for that, too.

I liked [Richard] because he was kind of the purest personification of entitlement.

Thats kind of what happens.

Did you get any ad-lbs in?Rians script was bulletproof to begin with.

I think I got a couple of good ad-libs in that scene.

Meanwhile, subconsciously, Im just handing her my empty plate.

That was an ad-lib.

It was like summer stock.

[Sarcastically] Well, it doesnt make him a bad person.

It just makes him … Maybe his ancestors were making bad choices … maybe.

That was Carlton Cuse.

They went on to doLost.

He just kind of described what it was.

I read the first episode, and I kind of liked being in on the joke.

Plus, you singOklahoma!I know.

Who doesnt loveOklahoma!?

Have you seen the revival in New York?

The really darkOklahoma!?

Because theres something akin to that inWatchmen.Well, I havent seen it.

But it didnt come up one time, so I have no idea.

Well, I do recommend seeing it.I will do.

It was fun to see you sing too.

Id forgotten about yourpop career.Hardly a pop career.

But it was a passion that I was able to realize, lets put it that way.

I think thats what happened with Regina and I.

Speaking ofNash Bridges, Ive read that there are plans to do aTV-movie revival of it.

Whats the state of that?Were writing the two-hour TV movie right now.

But well see about that.

So, Ill get to it over the weekend, during holidays.

That was just a first draft, so Im sure we got a ways to go.

Muscle-driven cop shows and attitudes and stuff like that.

Where is that 19 years later?

Its a great place to kind of reflect it back to the rest of the world.

What once was considered cool in the 80s would be laughable now.

And thats whats happening for me.

Im just really fortunate to still be in the game.
