![]() Matt Bomer: Yes, so it's been fun to do this flashback episode this season. The TV Junkie: Your character's relationship with Tim's, Peter Burke, is so much more familiar now. But really, a lot of the dynamics that Tim and I had so much fun with from the beginning have remained the same. And also, the procedural element of the show has gotten stronger. I think the writing has remained really crisp and really smart and respectful of its audience, you know? Over two seasons we've really had a chance to flesh out the characters and their relationships. Matt Bomer: What has changed the most about the show. The way you and Tim DeKay do dialogue has always been great. The TV Junkie: The things that was most apparent to me, the thing that was the most incredibly solid from the beginning, is the dialogue. The TV Junkie: What has changed the most, in your work with "White Collar" over the past season and a half? Matt Bomer: Yes! That affinity based on shared epxerience. The TV Junkie: It's where you are from, you have an affinity, that shared experience. I have a lot of friends who aren't but are fun people to have creative dialogue with because you came from the same place. I have a lot of friends who are of that ilk. We have a common bond, a common vocabulary. Matt Bomer: I think there's a strong group of people who have that theater background, who came from that and who want to go back to it. The TV Junkie: It's interesting to know that you're friends with Ben McKenzie (from TNT's "SouthLAnd") who is an alumnus with you from the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts. You can submit questions to the cast via the Paley Center for Media's website or feel free to send me some via Twitter to ask on the red carpet at tonight's event: shoot me a question at with the #WhiteCollar and #PaleyFest hashtags. We went to PaleyFest's "The Walking Dead" and "True Blood" events over the weekend and were blown away by the fans and enthusiasm for the shows. Many capers later, and well into an excellent new season, we had the chance to catch up with Bomer over breakfast a few weeks ago and he filled us in a bit more on his background in theater and his experiences with the show which shoots in New York but has a great following in Los Angeles.Coincidentally, "White Collar" is the featured program at tonight's PaleyFest2011 event at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills at 7pm. We first met Matt Bomer in October of 2009 on a frigid morning in New York City at the premiere event for USA's "White Collar" ( read the article/see the video here) and we can't believe a year and a half has gone by since we first asked questions about the partnership between Bomer's sophisticated criminal Neal Caffrey and the lawman he's teamed up with, Tim DeKay's Peter Burke. "White Collar" is the PaleyFest2011 event for tonight - 7pm at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills. Matt Bomer plays Neal Caffrey on USA's "White Collar" which airs at 10pm on Tuesdays.
