You think you're funny? I think I'm adorable.

Let's be honest, any show will live or die based on how good the characters are, how good the actors are, how complicated the relationships are, how grounded they are and how much heart they have.

When I am kicking around show ideas, or really any idea, usually an image comes to me. I don't really start with a character or a logline like, "What if the electricity turned off?"

It's hard asking someone with a broken heart to fall in love again.

People love a good mystery; I understand that.

There are so many shows out there, so you really need to work hard to separate yourself and cut through the static.

When you start a show, the plans are not set in stone. They're really mutable, cocktail napkin sketches.
