Quotes from Will Sasso

I wanted to be on 'Saturday Night Live' when I was a kid. It was kind of like growing up playing a sport, wanting to be drafted by your favorite team.

Jonathan Sadowski is a kick in the pants; he's become a really good buddy.

There are very few actors in L.A. who can call their own shots. If you're able to work on something that you actually like working on, you're a very lucky person, and if you're able to keep it going, you're very fortunate.

I can bluff with the best of them.

That's what I love about 'MADtv': If you exist, if you breathe, we will take you down.

I was fortunate to literally find my style on camera working in Canada.

As a kid I would watch 'SCTV,' 'Saturday Night Live,' 'Monty Python' and 'The Kids in the Hall,' and be amazed that these guys got to be different people every week. It spoke to the acting side in me.

I was fortunate enough to crash the right audition when I was 15, and just took it from there.

I really preferred the characters I could totally create by myself, because I always think of myself as an actor first.

I want to be known as the Daniel Day-Lewis of TV dads.

I like playing average guys who have a little extra something.

Pretty soon I may have to go back to Canada and buy that lumberyard I've always wanted. I'll probably sell some lumber, bring in some lumber... look at exploiting that lumber somehow. I'm not very schooled in it, but being an actor I feel that I have a keen sensibility with regard to the world of lumber because those two businesses are so similar.

I think it's important as an actor to stay really ignorant.

Sometimes the stuff I come up with is so silly I feel like I need to apologize at the end of every one of them.

A good sketch show, in my opinion, gets together a bunch of fun, funny people and collects their brainfarts, and shares them.

At any kind of Fox function, you'll see 'Mad TV' at the kiddy table in the back, next to the buffet. We're a late-night sketch show, and there is more money in prime time.

The Internet is a sketch show.

Sketch comes from everyday life. You can see someone on the street, and it can turn into a five-minute sketch.
