Hi, it’s Mary Lynn. This is a video where John Boyd is talking to me about being in the 24 promo from the premiere.
[video transcript]
- Mary Lynn Rajskub: You have probably the most famous line you could have on 24. Does it make you feel cool?
- John Boyd: Yeah it makes me feel cool.
- MLR: What do you say?
- JB: I say "who is Jack Bauer?"
- MLR: ...like you don't know.
- JB: Yeah.
- MLR: And that's like a joke for the audience 'cause the audience are like, "oh my God he doesn't know who Jack Bauer is!" right? But you really don't know, does your character?
- JB: No, I really... do not know.
- MLR: Because you're just doing your own thing in your world. What is it that you do?
- JB: I... drive, I fly... I turn [making motions with his hands]
- MLR: Whoa! I don't like the look of that at all!
- JB: Like this.
- MLR: You're DJ at CTU?
- JB: Yeah, sorta like Arlo on the ones and twos.
- MLR: Is it really appropriate to be listening to this music while trying to keep the security of this country together?
- JB: You gotta do what you gotta do.
- MLR: Are you the mole?
- JB: [shrugs]
- MLR: Is there a mole this year?
- JB: Yeah.
- MLR: There is?
- JB: I think so.
- MLR: Are there terrorists this year?
- JB: [shrugs]
- MLR: Hows your experience been on the show so far?
- JB: It's been good, it's a nice group. [someone shouts]
- MLR: Oh, I guess they're onto us.
- JB: I have to go work.
- MLR: I'm gonna take off my socks.
- JB: Okay, nice talking to you.
- MLR: Nice talking to you. Hey... "whose Jack Bauer?" I mean, who doesn't know who Jack Bauer is!?
- JB: I guess me.
- MLR: Arlo Glass. Are you named from the guy in This American Life?
- JB: No my name's not Arlo, its actually Carlo but people just pronounce it wrong.
- MLR: Oh the show?
- JB: Yeah.
- MLR: Weird.
