BEN FELDMAN

Here's the thing about Jews in Hollywood. Not to stereotype, but the Jews I know here are the funniest, most self-deprecating people I know. And it's rare to find a Jew that is actually offended by comedy about them.

Usually, if I'm yelling at the TV, I'm in a bar. If I'm by myself, and it's not a game, I often find myself scolding reality stars that can't hear me through the television set.

Anything that Aaron Sorkin writes, I could watch a million times. One of the few shows that I've watched in repeats was 'The West Wing.'

My aunt is a famous L.A. chef, Susan Feniger, and she's got Street and Border Grill. So a fun night out for me is to go to my aunt's restaurants.

When you audition for shows in Hollywood, you go in, you do your scene, maybe you get an adjustment. It's sort of easy, and a lot of times it just feels sort of rote and simple. Whereas when you go to New York and you audition for plays, you walk out sweaty and intimidated and nervous and doubting yourself as an actor.

I despise - I hate - I'm terrified of karaoke, and I wish I wasn't because everybody I know who's awesome loves it.

My father's Jewish, so my world is Jewish whenever I go home.

I would say what Mad Men has taught me has been a super elevated evaluation of text in general, and understanding subtext, and understanding where a character comes from - what he means by this or by that.

If you look at the history of advertising, most of them were Jews, so it was only a matter of time before 'Mad Men' explored that area of advertising.

With 'Mad Men,' you feel like you're a member of Seal Team Six when you're shooting.

There was a time where I chose my jobs based on what jobs were available to me, so I would choose 100 percent of them.

'Mindy' was fun. Other than 'Superstore,' it was the other time I played an elitist, obnoxious idiot.

I've been pretty lucky; I like my jobs.

My first job ever was at Baskin-Robbins when I was 14, which is probably the closest I'll ever come to having a corporate job like the one I play on TV - although I do work for Universal, so I suppose that's corporate.

Tinder's fascinating to me. I wish it was around when I was single and not on television because I can't imagine doing it when you're on TV.

I never went online when I was single, aside from flirting with people on MySpace when that was relevant.

I'm unconventionally romantic.

For the beginning of my career, I was always playing people younger than me.

Every single cast has a couple bad eggs, or that person that everyone is making fun of or doesn't like.

I think anybody's who's ever traveled to Paris or any sort of older European city will get caught up in the romance of the history and the ghosts you're surrounded by every day.

Dynamic change is always my favorite thing. As soon as I feel like I'm doing all of the same stuff over and over again, I'm bored and sad.

I live in Los Angeles, which is the youngest place - there's no history to Los Angeles. Everything's fake.

Often, American audiences are underestimated by producers and movie studios. They often think we're dumber than we are.

Every Thanksgiving, for the most part in my life, I've come to Deerfield in Chicago.

I do tons of feminine things.
