Working on: I play Jake, Joan Cusack’s boyfriend, on her new show starting March 27 on ABC-TV.
Chicago connection: The show is being filmed in Chicago and my previous TV show, “Early Edition,” which was on for four years, was also filmed here. I like Chicago because there’s always someplace to explore and new things to find.
