On television, Vartan starred as Sir Lancelot in the miniseries The Mists of Avalon, opposite Angelica Huston, Julianna Margulies and Joan Allen, and has guest-starred on Friends and Ally McBeal. He is best known for playing CIA agent Michael Vaughn on the popular spy drama, ALIAS. More recently, Michael appeared on the ABC "dramedy" Big Shots and has completed work on two more films, 2007's crocodile thriller Rogue and the yet to be released Jolene.

| Quotes:
|
- I honestly couldn't care less what people say about me, especially in this business that is based on being judged and rejected.
- I just find the darker side of people much more interesting.
- In the summers we'd work in the fields. You're not concerned about what your t-shirt's label says when you're laying irrigation pipe.
- I grew up in a village with 300 people, and style didn't exist.
- I'm not a bling-bling guy. I can't pull it off. I just look like an idiot.
- I wish I were a character actor. Of course, if I played hockey without a mask, I could become one.
- I'm friends with Hank Azaria. His closet looks like Barneys, all the suits lined up. I tried to separate my shirts from my pants. That was as far as I made it.
- You try and live your life as normally as possible and if someone invents a rumor that I have two vaginas, so be it. There's nothing I can do about it.
