So much respect to Levy for saying he did the American Pie sequels for the paycheck, not a lot of actors admit to that.

Been a Eugene Levy fan since back in his SCTV days. His dry-wit/deadpan delivery, which is the comedic form I enjoy most, has provided me a lifetime of LOLing (sometimes so loud my dogs yelp, then flee to the bedroom).
