Romance is important, but to have a friend you can use as a mirror, who can give you an objective response, that's what's really important.

I think that the idea of boundaries is being challenged everywhere. And I think our fascination with sci-fi is that it is a boundary-less world where we can kind of create the reality that we believe to be as opposed to the reality that is.

As much as I am one for real human interaction, I also want to make a show that's entertaining and that people want to see.
