- "I have been really lucky with the direction my career has taken ... I’ve been able to do my own thing." That "thing" includes dead-on comic timing and a flair for intense dramatics. The six-foot, brown-haired Kaye comes by his flamboyance naturally, since he counts Captain Blood -- the infamous model for actor Errol Flynn's most swashbuckling role -- as one of his family ancestors.
- Bill Fagerbakke says his mom is hot. This disturbs him. And us.
- She is a Good Friend to Elizabeth Daily.
- While Recording Arkham City, he happens to be a fan of Mark Hamills Work.
