"I feel like Kevin, he was such an observer of things, he must be like some kind of writer or something. That's what I kind of always thought," Fred, 35, said. "He's a writer or an educator."
The former child star believes his character might have even gone into a similar field as his own.

"He was such a keen observer and so heartfelt and so thoughtful about things," he continued. "He's probably like, on a TV staff somewhere. He's writing a pilot."
As for Fred himself, he's very happy to have successfully transitioned into behind the camera work, lending his directing skills to shows like "Modern Family," "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," Happy Endings" and "Party Down."
"I'm doing what I've always wanted to be doing, ever since I was a little kid... to be directing, shooting and producing television shows," he explained.
