Sound Bites: Peter Krause on ABC's Dirty Sexy Money
As part of a recent
TVGuide.com Q&A,
Peter Krause had this to say about ABC's
Dirty Sexy Money:
TVGuide.com: What are the chances of the show getting picked up in mid-May?
Peter Krause: I have no idea, but I can't see how ABC would want to pass up the opportunity. I don't think there's any other show this year about a wealthy family like this. It harkens back to
Dallas,
Dynasty,
Knots Landing, and, of course, it has a new twist.
Craig Wright (
Six Feet Under) wrote it and the cast is great -
Donald Sutherland,
William Baldwin,
Jill Clayburgh....
TVGuide.com: You play a lawyer who inherits his dad's job of representing a powerful, wealthy and dysfunctional family. Taking over the family business sounds a bit familiar.
Krause: Yeah, yeah, strangely the show begins with the death of my father. That's part of the reason I said no to the project at first. I thought it was a little too familiar, but I eventually came around.
TVGuide.com: Your character, Nick George, is much different than [Six Feet Under's] Nate Fisher, right?
Krause: He is. He's got more of an agenda, whether it's visible at first or not.
Dirty Sexy Money
will air Wednesdays at 10 pm/ET. Check out a video clip.
