Meaning of the quote
When you work on a TV show with a large cast, your role and responsibilities can become separate from the rest of the actors. Even though Michael Emerson was part of the same show, he had never acted in a scene with about half the other actors. However, he did miss working with one actor named Terry, even though they didn't share any scenes.

More quotes from Michael Emerson
It worries me a little bit the reach and power of TV. More people saw me in ‘The Practice’ than will ever see me in all the stage plays I ever do. Which is sort of humbling. Or troubling. Or both.
