I've discovered that people don't actually want to have things spoiled, and they really try to avoid spoilers.

There's a new television generation coming in every five or 10 years, and the classic stories stand up to being redone.

When complicated characters aren't well drawn, they're boring.

Sometimes, the actors are thrilled to have visitors because they're just waiting most of the day. It's the directors that are a little busy.

I depend a lot on my own judgment, for better or worse.

There's always a crisis somewhere, and you get the satisfaction of solving the problem. And then, there's always the mystery of whether a program will work or not, and waiting for the reviews or seeing what the audience figures are.

My primary job is to choose the programs, either to co-produce them, or acquire them after they're finished. So, I read a lot of scripts, I meet with producers and I read a lot of books.
