You Can Make A Good Show, But

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.

Series Finales Have That Responsibility To Leave You Feeling Good About Entire Series. You Want To Feel Like The Viewer Closes The Book Satisfied. And If You Strike Out On The Finale It Skews How You Feel About The Entire Series.

Cheers Was One Of The First Shows Where I Paid Attention To The Writers Because Their [work] Was Better Than Everything Else I Was Watching. The Writers Weren't Afraid To Let A Joke Fall Slightly Flat If It Advanced The Characters.

I Don't Want My Writing To Be Recognized.

I Still Feel Driven To Try To Make Great Shows And To Make Each Episode Great.
