The people that always impress me are the ones that are curious about what they're going to do next.

Well, at the time, you have to remember that we were not successful. The Showtime offer, as it was presented to me, was half the money for half the show. I was not interested, at that point, in doing a smaller cast and a more simplified Arrested Development.

Everybody keeps falling back to the same patterns without doing too much dramaturgy.

The more constraints I have, the more opportunities I have to be creative to fix those constraints.

My knee-jerk is that it is comedy and, if you watch them all back-to-back, you will gain something and you will lose something.
