Scott Douglas Jacobsen: How do you feel about having more white hair?
Rick Rosner: I feel bad about having a ton of white hair. I feel bad about having an old-looking face. I’ve done so many pilots about myself as the guy with among ‘the highest IQs in America’ or as part of a team of high-IQ people who do things. I’ve done at least four pilots over the past 25 years.
And they have yet to go anywhere. The older I look—the more I realize there’s this project with Kevin that got sold, and it was going to take off, but then the strike scuttled it. I don’t have that many more shots, and my face tells me that. My hair tells me that.
So yes, I would not say I like it. I see myself in pictures and look like a ghost because some people look good with white hair, but my skin is pale, too, so I look super ghostly. I asked Carole about it, and she said, “Yes, you do.”
