I always think the audience sometimes wants what you're not giving them.

I think when you do a season of television you go into it going I'd like the season premiere needs to be amazing. The season finale needs to be amazing.

In part, it's so difficult to come up with something original, to come up with a character nowadays. If you created a globetrotting adventurer, he'd be compared to Indiana Jones. If you created a super spy, he'd be compared to James Bond.

Probably the biggest challenge is actors, no matter how talented the actor is they don't have the capability of being in more than one place than one particular time, which is very vexing.

I'm a very big believer that the reason you've seen this huge surge in superheroes both on television and in film is...part of it of course is zeitgeist. There's no denying that there's a huge appetite on the part of the audience in both TV and film for these kind of adventures.

I think when it comes to television as opposed to film, the producers really are the writers. We work with people who are purely financial producers.
