A guy is a lump like a doughnut. So, first you gotta get rid of all the stuff his mom did to him. And then you gotta get rid of all that macho crap that they pick up from beer commercials. And then there's my personal favorite, the male ego.

A lot of student directors used to pick other students to be in their graduate films, so. I ended up doing a couple of them just for fun. Eventually, I got an agent through a friend and I did some commercials; then I got Knots Landing.
Brian Austin Green

And that's what happened to that show. It started ordinary, it started really rather bad. As I said, there was a review that said, really, we think the commercials are better than the show. And then it gradually developed.

Commercials that are geared towards kids. I think they should just, like, wipe them out.

I did commercials since I was 16, and that's kind of acting, depending on what you're selling.

I did my own music videos, my own TV commercials.

I did some commercials and a couple of B movies, then a few pilots that didn't go anywhere. Eventually I did the pilot for Beverly Hills, 90210. The rest is history.

I direct a lot of TV commercials and music videos.

I get offered to do stuff where the money's nice but it's not something I want to do - I get offered a lot of commercials too.
