Rodney: A lot of television shows are made so that people can turn their sets on, walk away and get a glass of milk or talk on the telephone for five minutes, and then come back in and know exactly what is going on. Space: Above And Beyond is not one of those types of shows. It's made like a feature film. You've got to sit and watch the little things that add up and make it all interesting. Sometimes, I wish it was simpler because then perhaps more people would watch it, but it is what it is.
Rodney: Once I started getting work in commercials I thought I was on the road to fame and fortune. Little did I know that it would take ten years of going to acting classes three times a week and doing tons of small plays in New York before I got my big break.
Rodney: (About his bad first audition for Space: Above and Beyond.) Three friends were in a big auto accident the day before, and one died and the others were almost paralyzed. Then, I came down with a really bad case of strep throat and a fever that was just unbelievable. It's probably the sickest I've ever been. I only had 20 percent of my voice. The producers weren't buying it, they were saying, ‘Why hasn't he done a good reading?’
Rodney: My favourite vacation getaway spot? Well, I could combine my sport, my hobbies and my ways of relaxing all into one. It's definitely a surf vacation to some beautiful tropical island; Barbados, Hawaii, Bali, Tahiti. I'm not much for sitting around, I have to be active.
Rodney: My favourite sport, hands down, is surfing. The only sport I follow ... and I do it constantly.
