I don't follow celebrity news or anything but I adore Patrick Stewart. I grew up watching him as Captain Jean-Luc, and now I get to laugh at his absurdly ridiculous lines in things like American Dad. I love when actors don't take themselves too seriously

“I didn’t enjoy being laughed at. I stormed off the set and into my trailer, slamming the door," the actor recalled in his new memoir, Making It So.

He’s certainly changed since then, but it wasn’t always so, he had to… Make it so.

It's not that he doesn't take himself seriously it's just that he's just having fun with all of it. Him and Ian McKellen just love acting in general.

You've probably seen it but if not check him out in Ricky Gervais' Extras. I've seen that episode a dozen times and it still cracks me up.

It’s too late, I’ve already seen everything.

Ha, what? I don't generally care about celebrities at all but I love Patrick Stewart. Maybe that's the problem.
