Former That 70’s Show star Wilmer Valderrama rang up Just Jared on Tuesday to talk about his Disney animated series, Handy Manny, a few of the projects he’s producing on the side and his Halloween plans for tomorrow. Here’s what the 28-year-old actor had to say:

JJ: Hi, Wilmer! Thanks for taking the time to speak with me. Are you familiar with blogs at all? Do you keep up with celebrity gossip?

WV: Not so much, actually. To be honest, I’m kind of out of the loop and I prefer to be that way. I read sports blogs a little bit but for the most part, I’m not an online guy. I’m more of a newspaper kind of dude.

JJ: Your Disney show Handy Manny was renewed for its third season. Can you tell us a little about the series?

WV: Handy Manny is a show about this young man who owns a repair shop. He does all kinds of repairs around town and he has a team of talking tools. Each tool represents a different character trait, different personality. Really, really cool concept for a show about being proactive by working as a team, sharing with others, and understanding people’s needs. And most importantly, to share. Also, the show has a little bit of a Spanish, bilingual side to the show. Not very preachy but it does give you one or two words; a phrase here or a phrase there. So, subliminally, you can learn a different language.
