I honestly think this is our best season. Without a doubt. I’ve really enjoyed shooting this season and I think there’s a lot of good work on the show.

Why would you recommend the season three DVD?

Because you can watch the season three DVD all the way through – like a two-hour movie. This is a great show for DVD because there is so much is going on. There are so many characters and so many plots, but you don't have to reset your mind if you watch it all in one fell swoop. I find more and more people are watching it this way.

Is McCallister based on any real-life politicians?

I base McCallister on a couple of men in my life who are achievers at a very high level. They are very complicated guys and they are a handful. To get where they want to be there is this sort of selfishness about them. They need that to succeed.

Do you think you would make be a good politician?

Nobody would have me.

But have you ever considered getting into politics?

I don’t rule it out because I love politics. That’s why I’m drawn to these roles. But who knows what the future holds? I love acting and I don’t want to give that up, so I’m sticking with this for now.
