But I do believe that in all my shows, I really enjoy the quirky, the eccentric characters, the ones you don't meet every day.

If you interview people or friends who work with me, they would say I'm private or internal or don't emote a lot. Yet I do it every day for 10 million people. I just don't do it for the 30 people I'm in the room with.

The more lawyers there are, the more people are out there to encourage others not to go to law school.

For me, I'm happy to succeed on any network.

I think the law changes, which is a nice luxury.

The ideal time for writing a [television] script is four days, though sometimes it has to be two or three days depending on the deadline. If it's two days, sometimes there are things I see that don't work as well. If I have two weeks, the scripts get kind of flabby and lack the adrenaline that a sense of deadline fills you with.

The way I personally work is I like to write what I know, what I feel, and also where I am.
