Ali LeRoi Kids Quotations

My wife told him it was just a TV show and to ignore it. It worked. He believes her. Kids trust their parents that way.

We're finding these little things that turn into something. He's going to go to school, he's going to meet people, he's going to run into problems, Dad's going to try to pay the bills, Mom's going to try to get along, keep these kids on the straight and narrow. That's pretty much the show.

We started looking for someone in L.A., and what we found was that we were encountering the usual suspects. They're Hollywood kids who have been in the business for a few years. We were looking for someone who was a little raw and a little edgier. And we got a tape from New York with this kid on it. The thing that sold us was his face. He has an incredibly expressive face, and it's older than his years. When you sit and you look at him, it already feels like he's carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. He looks like his eyes are a little sad, but he's really bright. At this particular point, there's no Hollywood in him.
