Donal Logue is one of my favorite character actors turned lead actor. He first came to recognition with the famous Jimmy the cab driver commercials on MTV in the early 90s. Soon after he started turning in marvelous supporting performances in films like Blade, Jerry Maguire and Men with Guns. His first lead role was in the wonderful indie hit The Tao of Steve which eventually led to the hit sitcom Grounded for Life. The first season of which has just come out on DVD. I got a chance to talk with Logue...

I've always liked Donal. not the least because he's an Irishman! Limerick, I believe. Cute sister, too, who used to work at the Bourgeious Pig in LA.

grounded for life was such an awesome show. I like the one where they try and steal the christmas tree from the lobby of an office building. classic.

someone should tell the dvd producers that it deserves a better dvd cover than the one they got saddled with. UGH.

Funny story: I went to (and later worked at) the same pre-school attended by the director of the Tao of Steve.
