Alexis Denisof

Lived in London for 13 years before moving back to the United States. When he returned, he was too broke to afford his own place and he couldn't find any work. Luckily, Mary Steenburgen, whom he had met while making Noah's Ark (1999), took him in. He lived with the actress and her husband, actor Ted Danson, for a year. "Ted and Mary are my saviors ... I definitely wouldn't have made it without their psychological and emotional support".

[on having Alyson Hannigan cross over from Buffy, la cazavampiros (1997) to play a role on Angel (1999) in the episode, Orpheus (2003)]. "It's a blast. I feel like it's a play day. I have to keep reminding myself that I'm at work. My girl is here! We're not getting to see much of each other. She has three jobs on her plate -- she's doing the next "American Pie" movie, she's doing Buffy, la cazavampiros (1997) and today on Angel (1999). She's a busy woman, so it's a double delight. I keep looking at her, and inside I keep giggling, and I keep thinking to myself, 'I have to remember I'm in a scene. I can't just smile at my fiancée'. But, really, all I want to do is run over and give her a hug" [Buffalo News, March 17, 2003].
