It's a strange thing to have a successful television show because if it's too interesting... people don't really pay attention when they watch TV. It has to be good, but not so interesting that you really have to pay attention because people multitask. So, if a show demands your entire attention, it has a tough time making it.

If someone can watch an entire season of a TV series in one day, doesn't that show an incredible attention span?

Some of the most important stories don't lend themselves to television treatment.

I don't watch a lot of television.

Oftentimes the shows that don't work help you get it right.

I'm not great on television. That's one reason I don't do it very often.

I feel like sometimes people on television shows can start taking things for granted, or they don't want to be here or something like that.

I don't do game shows.

I don't watch a lot of TV.

The truth is I don't watch TV at all. It bores me.
