Zachary: As an actor, you hope for a role where you get to wear multiple hats and to do action, comedy, romance, drama, mystery, all in one little hour-long block on Mondays at 8 p.m. It's a dream, man. When you get to make people laugh and blow sh*t up, you know you've got something good. (edit) Zachary: (On not wearing clothes to bed) I'm naked. I don't understand the point of wearing clothes to bed. Why? Unless you're really cold or sick and you've got to layer up to sweat it out. (edit) Zachary: (On kissing guest star Rachel Bilson on 'Chuck') She's 5'2" and I'm 6'4" - lots of apple boxes were used to do those scenes, which were steaming hot. (edit) Zachary: (On getting his groove on) I can destroy the dance floor. I think life should be a musical. I always hate it when people watch a musical and they go, 'Oh, it's so unrealistic, no one just breaks into song in the middle of their day.' Yeah they do - if they're me. (edit) Zachary: (On his inner nerd) I’m more Chuck than I’m not Chuck. Pretty much my whole life, actually, I’ve felt like a nerd. Growing up I was always the best friend to the girls, never the boyfriend. (edit) Zachary: I went from everyday scraping-it-out to Chuck on a show called Chuck. Getting this show was like Chuck getting government secrets implanted in his brain. You just kind of fear it and embrace it. (edit) Zachary: I have simple jeans tastes: Gap 1969, Guess, Banana Republic, and Diesel. (edit) Zachary: To be able to go and just love on your crew and your cast and your fans, it really makes a huge difference. (edit) Zachary: (About working with McG) Working with McG was a dream. I love that guy so much. He's so talented and I love his energy. (edit) Zachary: The money and the power and the fame and all of the things that come with Hollywood, they can twist up real quick. (edit) Zachary: (About his character in the show 'Chuck') It's so frustrating because the writers have vowed to not put a gun in Chuck's hands through the whole first season… I want to shoot a gun so bad!
