Reed: (on writers' grievances) The Internet is the next big revenue source for producers, and the people who make those shows deserve to get some of that money.
Reed: (on fans saving "Journeyman") For time traveling, they'd send watches. That might be a little expensive, I don't want to put them out, so maybe calendars or pages from day planners.
Reed: (on "Journeyman") One of the strongest parts of this great show is that Kevin Falls and all the writers so carefully thought everything out. Every question has an answer and questions get resolved or answered quickly as opposed to stringing it out to a point where you just lose interest.
Reed: I feel very lucky because of almost everything I've done, probably the thing I'm most recognized for is The Shield. Shield fans just love that show and that character has played such a large role on that show, it has always been amazing.
Reed: (on "Journeyman") We called it, when we were making the pilot, the time travel show for people who didn't believe in time travel.
Reed: (on changing his look as the younger Jack in "Journeyman") Whenever I travel back in time, my trick is, if I'm the younger Jack Vasser, I just comb my hair down... bangs equals youth.
Reed: I wasn't meant to be anything but an actor, but I found out when I met all of these cops is they all wanted to be actors. So, I thought, OK, here's what I'm going to do -- I'm going to play a cop truthfully, I'm going to honor them.
Reed: (on the writers' strike) Politically, their grievances are all legitimate. I don't think there will be DVDs and commercial television in the way we know. Our computers and televisions are going to be one thing, so people need to figure out how they're going to be paid for that world.
