I wasnt aware of my dad being an actor when I was young.

I dont know if there is a gene for comedy, but my dad was a very funny man. He just didnt know it. He was a naturally funny character, and when my brother and I would laugh at things he said and did, he would say, What do you think is so funny? – James Belushi

I would say the most help I got was from my dad. My dad is a civil engineer in Switzerland hes 90 years old now, so hes no longer active as a civil engineer, but still a very active person. – Claude Nicollier

I love playing a dad. Its hard to find family dramas that are genuinely funny. – Peter Gallagher
