- So many shows out there dumb-down the country. It's so admirable to be part of a show that wants people to think.
- Shooting this show is pretty intense. You lose your life. But I have no life, so it's perfect!
- I lost some weight, grew my hair and now every woman in America over 40 wants to date me. It's their daughters I want to convince.
- Charlie's not your conventional mathematician... we sexed him up a little bit.
- What's great is that because math is such a universal language, really, our fans come in all shapes and sizes, all ages and genders and races and backgrounds and cultures.
