![“So this ["Grant MacLaren"] was a chance to sort of go back and do a more leading man. But instead of just solving crimes like a CSI show, this leading man is, like the other travelers, not who he appears.” quote by Eric McCormack](https://sms4smile.com/q/img-quotes/d29/eric-mccormack-2915_chance_so-this-grant-maclaren-was-a-chance-to-s_2078513.jpg)
![“Rachael Leigh Cook was my leading lady. She was awesome. We loved the show [Perception ]. Again, it was more of a TNT show, because there were crimes that got solved, which [going] back five years ago, was a mandate. But there was something innovative about the mental illness side of it.” quote by Eric McCormack](https://sms4smile.com/q/img-quotes/182/eric-mccormack-2915_cooks_rachael-leigh-cook-was-my-leading-lady-s_1752297.jpg)
![“Seinfeld [show] had been so huge for me. It was one of those things where I discovered Seinfeld really early and was making sure everyone I knew was watching it. I would tape it on VHS and show it to people that hadn't seen the show yet.” quote by Eric McCormack](https://sms4smile.com/q/img-quotes/dc3/eric-mccormack-2915_huge_seinfeld-show-had-been-so-huge-for-me-it_2870531.jpg)
![“[Trust Me] was TNT, and they were really supportive of the show, but in the end they just didn't feel it was their audience. I never really understood why we didn't get a longer run at it, because it was Griffin Dunne and Monica Potter. Just a really strong cast.” quote by Eric McCormack](https://sms4smile.com/q/img-quotes/7d0/eric-mccormack-2915_audience_trust-me-was-tnt-and-they-were-really-su_2497020.jpg)
![“I think because the show ["Grant MacLaren"] is essentially a hopeful show. The show says that as bleak as the future is, the one thing that mankind developed was the ability to send their consciousness back and where a lot of the institutions of modern life have fallen apart.” quote by Eric McCormack](https://sms4smile.com/q/img-quotes/089/eric-mccormack-2915_ability_i-think-because-the-show-grant-maclaren_53728.jpg)
