Quoting: "Open your eyes or I'll staple your eyelids to your forehead." - Dexter Morgan

Examiner has some of what was said by Michael in the SAG Press Room.

How have you spent your time in the days between winning your Golden Globe Award and your Screen Actors Guild Award? And how are you feeling?

I have been feeling very well. Because I made this announcement [about recovering from Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a type of cancer], these public appearances were on the horizon, and it’s actually been a nice surprise. I’ve had a lot of people reach out to me who otherwise wouldn’t have: high-school teachers, friends from college. I spent a lot of this week responded to a lot of concerned but ultimately congratulatory e-mails and things like that. It’s been a lot of fun.

When you started Dexter, did you foresee getting any awards for the show? Did you think the show would be as critically acclaimed as it is?

I didn’t know. I knew our task was to sympathize a serial killer, and that it was a unique goal. I thought that the show would probably develop some sort of cult following, but I didn’t anticipate that the following would be as broad, that it would attract as many different kinds of viewers as it’s had. And I certainly didn’t foresee [Dexter] bobbleheads and video games and all that stuff.

Where did you put your Golden Globe, and where are you going to put your Screen Actors Guild Award?

I put it [the Golden Globe Award] in a little passageway in between the bathroom and the guest bedroom, where we have such things in our house. I’ll probably put it [the Screen Actors Guild Award] up there.
