Sometimes I find bringing in my old ideas is just detrimental.

When you change showrunners, it's like getting divorced and getting remarried.

With television you are producing hours and hours of music and for film it is a shorter experience for both the audience and for you as a composer.

The showrunner relationship in television is what the director relationship in film, there's really no more important relationship.

I'm not a good enough musician to like completely master something in a couple of days and turn it around.

I have been very fortunate in that I'm not doing all network shows or all cable shows, television has really become a year-round process in the way that it's made.

What I love more than anything is Jerry Goldsmith's 80's music and Bernard Herrmann's genre music from the 50's and 60's.
