Trivia

• Is known as a fan of the popular Red Bull Energy Drink. His popular character, Barney Stinson from the hit TV show How I Met Your Mother would frequently be seen imbibing the energy drink. As thanks for his inadvertent free advertising of their product, the company bestowed him with a free lifetime supply. And a mini-fridge to keep them in.

• Is known to be good friends with Elton John. The musician even played at his wedding.

Quotes

• "Our culture's adjustment to the epistemology of television is by now all but complete; we have so thoroughly accepted its definitions of truth, knowledge, and reality that irrelevance seems to us to be filled with import, and incoherence seems eminently sane. And if some of our institutions seem not to fit the template of the times, why it is they and not the template, that seem to us disordered and strange."

• "For me, magic can be a story, a game, a puzzle, or a surprise that takes my breath away in a single, furious gulp."

• "I'm lucky that people believe me when I'm in character."

• "I have a very large forehead. I have a pronounced skull. Maybe producers think that there is a lot going on up in there."
