Interesting interview with Sean wherein he talks about how he got on 24 (he and show co-creator Joel Surnow share the same chiropractor), his marathon television watching of the first three seasons of the show (”I barely slept. Judging by the sore butt cheeks, I probably did nineteen hours at a stretch and then slept for five or six.”), and how he settled in as a new cast member.
TeenTelevision: Do you think the show is getting pretty far out there? Pretty hard to believe?
Sean: At certain moments it would become ridiculous and implausible and, at those moments, I would start to get a little depressed because I’d grown attached to the characters but I’d fight through the next 20 minutes and another wave would kick in and the show is working again. The audience I’ve talked to that love the show enjoy the amusement of the things that are too far-fetched to get your head around. The show earns an emotional credibility with the characters.
