Lors des upfronts de Psych, il parle de la série, de ses films, de son ancienne série et de lui...

By Rachel Thomas

From playing a divorce attorney on L.A. Law to giving it his all in the many physical challenges on The Celebrity Mole, Corbin Bernsen has proved over the years that he can take on any role and continue to keep audiences captivated. Corbin's latest role on USA Network's Psych allows him to combine the best of his talents in this highly entertaining (and addictive) series.

I had the pleasure of meeting Corbin at the USA Upfront Presentation and found this talented actor to be just as charming and engaging as some of the roles we've seen him play over the course of his accomplished career....

Q: Are you enjoying your work on Psych?

Corbin: "I love it, it's great! It's first and foremost, a great show. We have a very fun set. For me personally, it's great because James [Roday] and Dulé [Hill] do the heavy lifting and I come in and give it a little kick every now and then. It's good for me because it gives me time with my family. I've been making movies, so I get to direct those."

Q: Are you working on any projects with your mother (soap star Jeanne Cooper)?

Corbin: "My mother's in all my movies. We just did two movies. One is called Donna on Demand and a horror movie called Dead Air."

Q: How do you like your character on Psych?

Corbin: "What I like about this character is that he's hugely conflicted. I have a son who's doing what I really wanted him to do - he's a detective, but he's not doing it my way. I'm raising four boys myself and you have certain expectations for them. In the end, you realize as long as you have the same goal, you're ok. You've got to come to grips with their path to get there."

Q: Do you ever miss playing Arnie Becker from L.A. Law?

Corbin: "No. I wouldn't mind exploring my character 25 years later, but it's kind of a thing in the past."

Q: What can you tell us about the upcoming season of Psych?

Corbin: "I don't know a lot, I pretty much stay out of the loop. I think we're going to explore my ex-wife a little bit. In the last shot of me last year, Mom was at the door."

Q: If you could have played any character in TV or movie history, who would it be?

Corbin: "That's a big question....Archie Bunker!"

Q: What would people be surprised to learn about you?

Corbin: "I have the world's largest snow dome collection. I have over 7,000 snow domes."
