Quotes by Josh McDermitt
A lot of times, working in stand up, youre by yourself ,and so you just have to rely on yourself only but I like working in an ensemble.
'The Walking Dead' was my favorite show before I even auditioned for it. That's every actor's dream, to be on a show that they're a fan of. It's just dark, and as a comedian, I'm drawn to dark things.
Stop trying to figure it out. I love puzzles, but when I'm done putting together a puzzle, I feel accomplished, and then I wonder, "What's next?" Then I go start another puzzle. Life is a puzzle that I feel like we'll never fully put together. And I like that because, ultimately, I don't want to have life figured out and then wonder, "What's next?" That seems scary to me.
I have an active imagination, and music opens the floodgates of that area of my brain.
My daily surroundings feed my work, whether it's something I'm working on right now or it's something down the road.
As an actor, I have to watch people and observe their behaviors - this is how I create characters.
