00:00I really wanted Blue's Clues early on when I first moved to L.A.
00:03And you fought for it?
00:04Yeah, I tried real hard.
00:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:06It's like 1999.
00:07I didn't get it.
00:07But I would have had it.
00:08I would have loved it.
00:09And, uh, yeah.
00:10You'd be that guy.
00:11Yeah, the early, I also...
00:12Wait, what do you mean you really wanted Blue's Clues?
00:14I auditioned for it.
00:15I would have loved to have been...
00:18It's like a show for toddlers.
00:20The Hollywood Reporter's Comedy Actor Roundtable is about to premiere,
00:23and we're giving you a special preview.

00:31This time around, the stars sitting down at our iconic table are
00:35Adam Brody, Ted Danson, John Mulaney, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, and Julio Torres.
00:41When things come your way, what a John Mulaney type is?
00:44I think it's still...
00:45It has traditionally, when it's come up,
00:47and still means, I think, sort of like a genital-less...
00:50Like, hey, bah, bah, bah!
00:52Like, kind of like a soulless wooden boy who's fast on his feet.
00:58During the hour-long sit-down moderated by THR's Lacey Rose,
01:02the six actors spoke about everything from getting bad notes...
01:05We've gotten some very bad notes over the years.
01:08Like, we're trying to put, like, Michael Cera, Jonah Hill in something,
01:11and we're like, we think these guys are, like, got a future on their hands.
01:13And they're like, I don't see it necessarily.
01:16Like, uh, like Emma Stone, I think they were like,
01:19that took some convincing things like that, that it's shocking in retrospect.
01:22Being funny at every age.
01:24What is it like to be funny at this age,
01:26and how is it different than being funny or sort of early on your career?
01:29It hurts a little more.
01:30It hurts a little more? Okay, okay.
01:32When you see in the script, he runs.
01:34He scampers off this way.
01:38You put it, they scamper away from him.
01:41And even navigating a career pivot.
01:44I decided I wanted to see if I was good at dramas.
01:46And so I, like, dove in hard, and I thought, look out, world.
01:51Here comes me doing drama.
01:53And it turns out nobody gives a shit.
01:55Like, you want to do a big career pivot.
01:58It's like, no one cares but you.
01:59You have to care the most.

02:05for inspiring and surprising conversations.
02:08Julio, do you know what a Julio Torres type is, if you were to see it?
02:12I think it depends on who wrote it.
