Not a lot of people get a second chance. And I think for a while there, my name kind of got in my way a bit, based on all of the television I was fortunate enough to do. But after a while, you sort of wear out your welcome in that genre, in that medium.

People have to respond to the characters and respond to the situations that they're in. That said, it still has to be a compelling narrative that drives along and keeps people coming back week after week. So really, with any successful show you could name, there has to be a mysterious blend of both of those.

I have stolen the show many times.

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

We never thought the show would last this long.

'Brisco' was the first show I created, and of course, at the time I had no idea what a special experience it was because I didn't have a frame of reference. After it was over I was like, 'Damn. Shoot. That was something special.' I'm still upset that it got cancelled.

I was watching the show last year and it didn't even cross my mind that this could even happen.

Original 'Dallas' fans, please come back, because it's the same show 20 years later - same drama.

I don't think this show would have come to me 10 years ago. It continues to be this wonderful miracle.

I want every episode to feel like we still haven't done this right yet.
