Entertainment Weekly (EW) interview in promotion of Miracle Workers: Dark Ages (series 2). The show premieres tonight on TBS.

When you signed on to the first season of Miracle Workers, there was always the plan to make it an anthology series. How did Simon decide on this Dark Ages setting and story line?
Simon is somebody who is a bit of a history nerd, and Simon’s brain looked at a lot of the potential situations in that world and just saw something he could make very, very funny. There is some stuff in the show that is really obviously heightened, that is very crazy, but it’s not that far off from the kind of stuff that was going on in medieval Europe. We have a goat on trial, and that is actually something that is completely true and something that happened with semi-regularity in medieval Europe. There really were animals put on trial for things, so it’s quite rich pickings for comedy.

Total Film magazine interview.

What are you afraid of
Lots of things. But the biggest fear for me other than, obviously, something dreadful happening to my loved ones, or to my physical health, steps from a fear of: '"What if I don't get to be on film sets in some capacity for the rest of my life?" If something were to happen that took that away from me, that would be the worst.

Whats your favourite scary movie
I'm a real wimp. The Shining scared the s**t out of me. What was I when I watched that? 14? I remember all these other kids in my class were like, "Watch 'The Exorcist'. It's really funny now, it's not scary at all." And I watched it and was like, "I am permanently scarred by this."

Do you feel lucky?
I feel incredibly lucky. It is a cliché to say that acting is an amazing job but to have a career where you have some say over what you want to do, it puts you in a very small percentage within the acting world. So I am ridiculously lucky and try not to forget this."

Do you watch many dramas?
I’m really bad about watching drama or anything worthy. There have been loads of amazing series that I haven’t seen yet, including Breaking Bad. I haven’t seen Mad Men all the way through. When it comes to drama, I get bored easily and I don’t like to commit myself to a show I’m not enjoying. And when I do enjoy a drama, I usually sit there feeling jealous and wishing I was in it. That’s why I stick to documentaries, cartoons and cooking shows.

Are you a super nerd?
I grew up doing lots of things where I thought, 'This is super nerdy. I'll never be able to do this around a girl.' But that's the wonderful thing about the moment you find the relationship you're meant to be in. It's like, 'Oh, I can do all of that stuff and you don't mind. And you actually think it's fun, too. This is fantastic!

Favorite thing to do after turning off the TV
She comes from a big family of card players, so she’s introduced me to a lot of card games. We play a lot of board games, too. I feel lucky I’ve found somebody I can turn to and say, “Do you want to play Scrabble?” And for her to say, “Sure”. It’s super nerdy.

Who wins at Scrabble
Erin wins — I haven’t won a game in weeks. She plays [the app] Words With Friends all the time, so I feel like she’s getting practice all day long and I’m way behind. We watch a lot of TV. We go and see movies. We hang out and eat. We read. And in my spare time, I generally go to the gym, which is a boring answer, but I go to the gym a lot.

What's the view from your sofa?
We don’t have a huge TV. It’s not tiny but I go to friends’ houses and think, “Whoa, the TV is like a cinema screen”. That’s crazy to me. People come to my house and say, “Wait, really? This is your TV? This is it?.

Harry Potter (also shared on Facebook)

“He is a very good actor, and I think he’s politically motivated himself which helped. Some modern actors they aren’t that way inclined, and you had to be politically motivated to play the part, that’s the only kind of actor I would have wanted to play myself. Without the right attitude and the right politics you can’t do that person you’re playing justice.

"He asked me what South Africa was like under apartheid and I had to explain to him, and he took it all in, because you can’t really pick up from the script or from the book — you really had to be there.”
