Andre Braugher PCM Interview

PCM's Emily had the opportunity to participate in the conference call with "Men of a Certain Age" star Andre Braugher. Her questions are below:

Q: I was wondering how you personally relate to your character, Owen?

Andre Braugher: Well I mean in a lot of different ways. I mean I'm involved in the same stuff that Owen is which is that you know I got two living parents and a bunch of wild boys at home and you know a wife and crazy co-workers and you know best friends and I love them all but they drive me absolutely up the wall, you know?

And I think that's the thing that everyone can relate to about these families is that, boy, they love each other to death but they're driving each other absolutely crazy. I mean Joe and Owen and Terry have known each other for 30 years and we give each other a lot of tish but – and we complain, you know what I mean? But nobody ever changes, you know what I mean?

We argue over the most ridiculous things but that's how we relate and I think people can understand that and see that they're quite truthful and well observed and consequently something that's worth watching, you know what I'm saying? This is true and these relationships have consequences, so I liked that about this show.

Q: I see. So this show has a lot to do with the friendship and the bonds that your character has with his two friends. Do you have friends that you have a similar relationship with?

Andre Braugher: Oh absolutely, guys that I've known since I was kid. Yes. We're still tight, you know what I mean? We pick right off where we left off you know. We have the same complaints about the challenges that this stage of life has brought, you know? We imagined you know that when we got to be this age we'd have it made but you know what that's a fantasy, you know what I mean?

We struggle at this age and we're going to be struggling 20 years from now but that's just life, period you know? I find this show to be you know right on the mark in terms of what everybody's trying to do and how frustrating it is and funny you know? I mean we're cry about it on Monday but we're laughing about it on Friday and it's just you know that's how life is. It's good in that way
