The digital camera is a great invention because it allows us to reminisce. Instantly.

I think it would be cool if you were writing a ransom note on your computer, if the paper clip popped up and said, 'Looks like you're writing a ransom note. Need help? You should use more forceful language, you'll get more money.'

Swimming is a confusing sport, because sometimes you do it for fun, and other times you do it to not die. And when I'm swimming, sometimes I'm not sure which one it is.

Saying, 'I'm sorry' is the same as saying, ' I apologize.' Except at a funeral.

I came from a theater background and always wanted to act.

I never felt comfortable hosting TV.

I've never really loved mean comedy.

A lot of queer relationships on television and in films are met with extreme tragedy.

I've been a lover of fashion my whole life.

Gay relationships have historically not been treated the same as straight relationships.

I was such a bad red-carpet host.

My name is Dan, and I'm a technoholic.

It's important to tell queer stories and to show queer relationships in a very normal setting.

A lot of queer characters get painted with either a caricature brush, or they're used to teach, in a way.

I always try, if I can, to travel before I start a writing project. For me, travelling is my education. It inspires me, and it clears my mind and allows me to come back with a cleansed palate.

Entertainment seems to be the only arena where children who pursue the work of their parents, which is an inherently natural thing to do, is met with a lot of skepticism.

People always ask about my dad and his comedic influence. It's funny because my mom is really the comedian of our household.

My parents have always had this philosophy that overindulging your children is one of the worst things you could do as a parent. It's something that was hammered into my head growing up. And while my mom and dad are not professional authorities on parenting, I can confirm from experience that they had a point.

No one does cool, catchy pop music like Robyn, and 'Hang With Me' is a testament to that.

At the end of the day, I'm from Canada, and so there will never be a time when I'm suddenly not Canadian.

I never pictured L.A. as a hub for amazing food, which I learned quite quickly is sheer naivete. The restaurants here are insane.

I've read about actors trying to prevent their kids from getting into it, and I think that's from what they themselves experienced in the industry.
