Al’s wardrobe
The idea of the wardrobe was Don’s. And I thought it was terrific. I don’t know if anybody ever said, “Why does he ever dress like that?” Nobody ever asked, “Why does he dress like that?” It was just accepted. … Continue reading
First season
Like any show, when you create it, when you do a pilot – the show develops in the season that follows that. That’s why the first season is so interesting to me, because you can actually watch the growth and … Continue reading
Preparation
When they got me they had somebody who played a lot of sports, who sang, who danced, who could play the piano, play the guitar. My whole life had, in a sense, prepared me to be in this show. — … Continue reading

Swiss cheese
Don [Bellisario] worked this convention of me being swiss cheesed each time I leapt. My desire as Sam to get back home didn’t build necessarily … It didn’t keep building in frustration, or “I hate this” – especially in the … Continue reading
Observer
He watches. He’s a perfect observer. He watches, he chomps on his cigar – he gives you little stuff here and there, that kind of lets you know … “That was a good one.” — Scott Bakula on Dean Stockwell
