New interview – TV Guide

Here is a snippet:

But if talking about himself doesn’t come easy, the actor’s certainly comfortable discussing his character, whom he speaks of like an old friend. “I wish I were a little more like him,” he admits surprisingly enough, considering the former teen dad/pool cleaner is not the brightest. “He’s loyal and he takes things in stride. It’s about loving life and having a good time — Burt’s really good at that. I could learn from him.”

With the show renewed for a second season, Dillahunt will have plenty of time to pick up some tips — and he couldn’t be happier about it. “I like playing the fool. I’ve never understood actors who are like, ‘I don’t wanna do that. That makes me look like a loser!’ That’s when things are interesting — when you’re down.”

And if being on a hit show makes him too recognizable to play the chameleon and slip in and out of roles unnoticed? Dillahunt’s not worried: “That would be an exciting obstacle to overcome, right?”

New Raising Hope airs tonight at 9. Scroll down for the previews.

Still no word on theatrical release for the U.S. and the rest of the world, so if you’re impatient and live in region 1 or have a region-free/NTSC-friendly DVD player (or can play unfriendly DVDs on your VLC media player), you can pre-order the film on Amazon.ca.
