Here's a thing, he is not really motivated by material gain or popularity - he' s more into character growth and transformation. He is also very thoughtful in conversation he listens to hear not react. Wish him a long and successful career, a guy like him deserves it.

Why is everyone so mean about the interviewer? I think she is doing a great job. And she seems to be an easy-going person in general. Travis is pretty shy and (probably) tired almost in every interview. So what's the problem with this young lady?

It's true.The way he uses his physicality,rapidly changing facial expressions & strategically timed silences makes Ragnar completely fill the screen when he is in a scene.He has a rare power of presence.I wish Travis every happiness whatever life choices he makes.I'm a country lad myself.I don't like cities much either.Give me the trees & fields any day!Best of luck Travis!

I think his main trait is not humility. Seems like he's not doing what he does for fame or becoming worldwide star, problably doing it because he does it well and not really caring about the rest of it. Even is his speech sounds reluctant, obviously he prefers a calm life. By the way, Katheryn says that he's an extreme prankster. There's that.

whoa, he just seemed so uncomfortable being interviewed as himself I felt sorry for him. obviously he can act, portraying ragnar and bringing all that dangerous, craziness out of himself in front of the camera, but it must be exhausting. from what ive heard about tv shooting schedules, the rushes/dailies are done when they're done and you don't get to stop until they are completed. maybe the guy is always tired when he has to do these interviews, but im thinking he would just rather not do them at all.. hope he gets every every cent he asks for this acting job and is able to purchase his farm or whatever he wants. its so refreshing to know that there's at least one show business person who isn't pathologically egotistical and can tolerate more than a few seconds of not talking about himself...unlike most of the 'celebrities' in Hollywood.
