"If that's the example that myself and Olivia, provide for them, then I'm happy about that. It doesn't have to be in this business necessarily, but if they find — Daisy wants to be about 10 different things."

"They like the show, they watch the show. They know all these guys," Sudeikis added. "They know these guys and gals as real people, not just as their characters. It's nice. It's one big happy family."

When it comes to portraying a parent on-screen (Similar to Jason, Ted shares his son Henry with his ex-wife), Sudeikis credits his success to being a dad IRL. "I don't think I ever could have portrayed a parent, me personally, effectively in a way that I would have believed until becoming one," he said. "I don't think I'm a good enough actor to do that kind of make-believe without having that kind of love that enters your life when you have kids."
