I think when Sarah Palin opened her mouth and started talking, the more she talked, the less appealing she became.

I think test screening works at its best when the audience knows what it's getting.

They're intimidating the networks and levying these fines, so the networks are not sure of what they can or can't do.

When I was growing up in Baltimore, the Colts were not just a team that played in the city. It was part of the city. Football players didn't make close to the money they make today and most took jobs in the off-season. Some were mechanics, others worked at furniture stores, and you could find them drinking at a neighborhood watering hole.

I've had a lot of movies that didn't get great numbers on test screening, but a lot of times the film was able to survive, or the studio still stayed and supported it.

I'm fascinated by documentaries, to begin with. Because of the nature of television, as opposed to theatrical, documentaries can be in this long form and take you on a journey.

A lot of time mistakes are very interesting - you look for the behaviour that's not the one you expect.
