I grew up going to the movies, not watching them on television, so I'm still a bit resistant to TV as a medium.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Television is a medium because anything well done is rare.
People have said that I said I hate television. I never did say that. What I said was that I hated a lot of stuff that was on television. It's nothing about the medium itself.
I didn't watch much TV as a kid and I don' t watch it now. I don' t find anything beautiful or unique to the medium, and the only thing you can do on TV that you can't do in film is make a continuing story - which is so cool!
Though television is a smaller medium than the stage, you can't be afraid to be big.
I think I'm kind of attracted to the material more than the medium. I'm not opposed to doing a television show, though. I actually think there are a couple of good ones. And there is some terrible theater. Film is a very different kind of acting.
If there's something decent going in television, the mediums now are kind of equal. Television has become much higher quality.
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.
One of the networks sent me a TV set to watch. I didn't care for the medium. It depressed me.
I seriously consider television to be the people's medium.
I love TV in a way that I don't love any other medium.
