I Don't Think Anybody Wants To See

I Think That We, As Writers, Get Excited By Risk. When We Are Feeling Comfortable And Familiar, I Wouldn't Say That We Get Bored, But The Energy In The Room Gets Flat. When We're Most Excited And When The Show Is The Most Fun, It's When We're Duking Things Out.

One Person's Magical Thinking Is Another Person's Cynicism.

Hopping Around Time In A Non-linear Storytelling Fashion (on 'lost') Allows You To Bring Back Characters Who Are Dead And, In Some Cases, Buried. Now That Time Travel Is The Story Itself, It Opens Up Even More Doors. So When An Actor Reads That They're Getting Killed Off On The Show, They're Basically, Like, 'okay, But Should I Still Bother To Show Up Next Week?'

You Can Watch An Episode Of Friends Or An Episode Of Law & Order And Just Drop In, But You're Not Going To In The Middle Of Season 4, Episode 5 Of Lost. It's Like Picking Up A Harry Potter Book And Flipping To A Chapter. You Have To Read It From Beginning To End.

Connecting Dots Is Not That Rewarding Of An Experience.
