Actor Tituss Burgess (30 Rock) won a 2015 Emmy nomination for his role as the roomie who’s always short on cash and long on caustic wit. Interview at AOL HQ in NYC for AOL BUILD.

    He seems to be such a sweetheart, such a concious, considerate man. When he answered the young boy's question I was so emotional because titus' character really made me laugh trough really hard times.

    I'm glad I found this interview. Tituss is such a phenomenal actor and I love the show.
    To be completely honest, one of the things I loved most about the show was the BEAUTIFUL relationship - from beginning to end - between Titus and Mikey. It was natural, loving and realistic. It is one of the reasons I recommend the show to my friends at church and the homophobic coworkers who always denigrate gay people.
    Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt showed ME a full, beautiful relationship that was created and unfolded in such a magnificent way and there was nothing about it that felt preachy or contained grandstanding messages. Titus and Mikey just LOVED each other! And that made me see life, love and homosexuality differently. This is what I want for others, too. I want others to stop making nasty comments because someone "loves differently than you" because this show highlighted that it is NOT "different." It's just love. And that's a good thing.
    Thank you for that lesson. :o)

      I'm sorry, but I don't understand why you call him an actor.

    Haven't seen many pop cinema productions that covers as many life issues as this show, wrapped in what I've found to be an excellent comedy and entertainment. This dude is the real deal. Tina Fey is seriously da shit !

    I love his character in this show, by far my fav character. I know the show is about Kimmy, but he steals the show in my opinion.

    After being in Theater since I was 15, paid....and now I am 56, I love the smart, most important info and subtlety my black gay hero exposes about...... making a show and being in it.
    This is gold reality and very crafty for anyone who loves craft and skill.

      He said" cadences in How Tina writes.." craft insider magic and just what I wanted to know.
      Dang dude, you is so.... generous.

    So many times when I watch shows or movies with certain actors or singers even, I feel like so many of them have an ego or that certain thing to them that makes them just a little less likable and less relatable, but the one of the MANY reasons why I fell in love with this show is how down to Earth all the actors and actresses are. Tina Fey really is a genuine genius when it comes to shows or anything she does really, but it's awesome seeing how these actors act off screen. And it just sweetened my heart to see how different Tiduss is from Tidus on the show, and how kindly he treated the younger boy. I've struggled with my mental health for a very long time, and to see actors and actresses acknowledging people like us is encouraging and it makes the show more dear to my heart.

    19:25 “Kimmy came back into the world with a $15k trust.” 💆🏼‍♀️
    They always seem to get ahead, while we have to fight, struggle, borrow and steal to get ahead. A piece of the American Dream. Due to the old, rich guys at the top. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    He seems a little....depressed.

    • @gregbocko5903
      @gregbocko5903 6 років тому +31

      I think it's just striking to see him like this because he's clearly very thoughtful and measured and mellow, whereas he so often plays characters that are a little more, idk, glib or vapid and high-energy I guess-- the dissonance between the two makes it seem like he's depressed, but from other clips of him speaking relatively candidly this seems pretty normal for him and not necessarily depressed. but also, you know, I don't know him.
