I\u2019m not a good cook, but I scramble eggs beautifully.<\/p>\n<p>2. When my daughter was a wee one, we\u2019d go to the Butterfly Garden at the Museum of Natural History. Now she\u2019s a teenager, and we go to movies.<\/p>\n<p>3. I would love another season of <em>Happy!<\/em> There\u2019s so much more amazing story to tell there.<\/p>\n<p>4. My most vivid childhood memory is seeing falling snow out of the window and thinking the apartment building we were living in was rising into the air.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4347916\" style=\"width: 300px;\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:77.142857142857%;\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"caption\"><br \/>\n Noah Wyle<\/span> <span class=\"credit\">Warrick Page\/MAX<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>5. Season 1 of <em>The Pitt<\/em> [was the last show I binged]. The whole show was amazing but episode 12? The mass shooting? That was a master class \u2014 acting, writing, directing, all of it. Had to watch that episode twice.<\/p>\n<p>6. I absolutely read my own reviews. An unhealthy dose of self-regard is the base fuel for all entertainers.<\/p>\n<p>7. My favorite way to spend a Saturday is sleep until I wake up and then sit on my front porch drinking tea and reading.<\/p>\n<p>8. I\u2019m a night owl who really wants to be a morning person. [It\u2019s] a constant struggle.<\/p>\n<p>9. Growing up, I idolized <strong>Charles Schulz, Vincent Price<\/strong> and <em>The Six Million Dollar Man<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>10. My first car was a 1985 Nissan Sentra. Death-box with a tape player.<\/p>\n<p>11. Alice\u2019s Kids is a charity doing great work. They\u2019re this amazing group who provide funds for at-risk kids, anonymously, because they\u2019re so aware of all the poverty shaming that goes on in this country.<\/p>\n<p>12. \u201cKnock Three Times\u201d by <strong>Tony Orlando and Dawn<\/strong> is my go-to karaoke song. I love banging the mic stand on the ground during the \u201cknock knock knock\u201d part. A great drunk belter.<\/p>\n<p>13. <em>Every Anxious Wave<\/em> by <strong>Mo Daviau<\/strong> is my favorite book. Required reading if you\u2019re Gen X.<\/p>\n<p>14. The most starstruck I\u2019ve ever been is meeting <strong>Martin Scorsese<\/strong> and trading legends about <strong>Timothy Carey.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>15. My celebrity crush growing up was either Joy Harmon from <strong>Village of the Giants<\/strong> or Josie from <strong>Josie and the Pussycats<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>16. There\u2019s no alternate profession for me. Don\u2019t even want to imagine it.<\/p>\n<p>17. My favorite <em>Parks and Rec<\/em> memory is just the fact that I got to be on the show.
