I Don't Want My Writing To Be

Nothing Makes Me Happier Than To Have A Smart Person Tell Me Why The Show Is Smart, Especially If I Didn't Intend That. I Tend To Be A Very Instinctual Writer, And I Don't Plot Shows Out Like, "this Is My Thesis And This Is How I'm Going To Subtly Sneak My Thesis Into This Episode." I Just Approach It From, "we Know These Characters Well, Here Are The Situations That They're In, Now How Would They Behave? What Would The Consequences Be?" And It's Always Fun To See How People Interpret That And Dissect It Afterward, And Make Me And The Other Writers Seem Probably Smarter Than We Really Are.

There Will Always Be Economic Pressure To Make Hits, Identify Hits, And Then Exploit Hits. And You're Going To Exploit Them With As Many Episodes As You Probably Can.

I'm Very Humble In Terms Of Knowing That Television Is An Extraordinary Collaborative Medium And That One Person Alone Cannot Make A Great Tv Show.

I Think The Bar Is Higher These Days In Terms Of Audience Expectations Of Authenticity.

There Are Certain Economics Involved In Making A Network Tv Show That You Want To Amortize The Costs Of That, So The More Episodes You Make, The Cheaper They All Are Individually.
