I'm not a very good interview, usually.
— Gregory Smith
I've gone through several cycles. When I was little, I was the cute kid with missing teeth and funny one-liners. Then I moved on to be the young guy who wanted to be a grownup.
It's hard to reinvent the wheel with a cop show. But 'Rookie Blue' has a pure emotional center that's not cynical.
A couple of my favourite cop movies are 'I Love a Man in Uniform' and 'The Long Goodbye.'
I backpacked all around the world and kind of found myself. Then I settled back in L.A. and found 'Rookie Blue.'
I don't cook.
I am not a morning person.
Acting is such a strange thing, it's different for everybody.
My career will come full cycle one day when I play the father of a cute little kid missing teeth who spouts one-liners.
We've all been there, right? When you meet someone personally and then you find yourself working with them professionally, it's awkward.
When I was 16, I was in a film called 'The Patriot.' I spent every second I could on the set watching the director and his team bring America circa 1775 to life. From that moment on, I was hooked.
Some projects feel like the stars are aligning for them from the very beginning.
I don't have a cell phone.
That's basically how I learned everything as an actor. I was just a kid, and I worked with these actors, and I'd ask them questions, and then something would work for me, and I'd try to move forward with it.
Odd, interesting names are good to me.
I didn't watch a lot of cop shows growing up, but I am a huge fan of 'Southland' now.
I'll tell you one big misconception. Cops never say 'Freeze!' It might be misinterpreted. They might think you were, like, ordering fries. Or that you had fleas.
The character I played on 'Everwood' was so serious and melancholic that after doing it for four years, it really started affecting my soul. I was becoming Ephram.
I drive an old Camaro that I got when I was 16. And I've been known to do stupid things with my time, like Friendster.
