KP: I think it's great that (in different projects) you've played someone named "Eddie", someone named "Malvin" and someone named "Eddie Malvin." Was that a coincidence?
ED: The Eddie was written by a pal of mine, and i know Eddie Malvin was customized by a pal of mine. I do not know where Malvin came from.

KP: I loved the movie SURF II: THE END OF THE TRILOGY and was happy that you exacted some evil revenge. Do you think it's important to show people the potential harmful outcome of nerd-bullying?
ED: Yes, I hate people being mean or cruel to other people, especially big guys picking on littler guys. This is a form of cowardice.

KP: On THE SIMPSONS, who's the better nerd: Martin or Millhouse?
ED: Since the girl who plays Millhouse is a great pal of mine, I will choose her, she is a doll.

KP: Now that SAVED BY THE BELL has been canceled and Screech is gone, who do you think will carry the nerd torch?
ED: I actually auditioned for the role of Screech years ago.

KP: Oh my God!
ED: I have no idea who will carry the torch.

KP: Okay - enough nerd questions. Your Beatles trivia contest is killer! How great was it to be in I WANNA HOLD YOUR HAND?
ED: It was such a blast and Bob Zemeckis was the best director I have ever worked with.

KP: Did you make out with Nancy Allen?
ED: No, unfortunately (for her).

KP: Is Brian De Palma jealous of you? Is that why he didn't cast you as Elliot Ness in THE UNTOUCHABLES?
ED: I beat De Palma in a pool game one day and he never forgave me.
KP: I knew it! Have you ever met a Beatle?
ED: I actually touched Paul McCartney when his car drove over my foot at N.B.C. I saw George in person when I was playing Santa Claus at the Beverly Center. I saw Ringo in concert in Atlantic City.
