Ben McKenzie

Lightning has struck three times for Ben McKenzie when it comes to beloved TV shows but the guy could use a break. 22 hours of TV a year isn't for lightweights and nowadays Ben's a father and a husband (to co-star Morena Baccarin) but he still knows how lucky he is. And of course it all started with "The O.C.". On this episode of "Happy Sad Confused", Ben talks frankly about the opportunity and frustrations associated with becoming a teen heartthrob virtually out of nowhere. Plus he discusses the critically beloved series, "Southland", and his current project, "Gotham", in which he's just directed his second episode.   Learn more about your ad choices.
