TV is just such a fast-moving medium that you do what you can do, and what you can't do, you don't worry about too much.

I don't ever want to have a weak episode of television with my name on it.

There will always be economic pressure to make hits, identify hits, and then exploit hits. And you're going to exploit them with as many episodes as you probably can.

I still feel driven to try to make great shows and to make each episode great.

You can make a good show, but you still need some magical alchemy to get people to watch.

The worst thing you can do is end up with a network show on cable or end up with a cable show on network.

Everyone in Hollywood who is successful becomes less successful at some point. I'm just trying to delay that fall for as long as I can.
