About Harland Williams: Harland Reesor Williams is a Canadian-American actor, comedian, author, artist, musician and radio personality.
I think a lot of people think I'm doing kind of a character onstage, but what you're really getting is just me.
If you were to come out and hang out with me, just having fun at a nightclub or a party, that's kind of the version of Harland you'd get - silly, kind of always saying wacky things.
I try to take normal things - whether it's a serious subject or something as obscure as a piece of toast - and put a very weird twist on them.
My roots are in stand-up, and stand-up is very freeing. There's no script involved; you just fly.
Without sounding negative, I'm not a huge fan of a lot of stand-up. I'm more interested in an absurd kind of theater.
I'm an American citizen now, but I will always have Canadian pride.
Pumpkins are the only living organisms with triangle eyes.
I'd done a ton of movies here in Hollywood, and I realized that every movie I'd done was somebody's else's work and someone else's vision.
It was such a pleasure to work with Eugene Levy. What a treat. That's a guy I grew up watching as a kid. Guys like that, they were hilarious and didn't have to be super vile or X-rated.
