We're a diverse society, and I think the TV is doing a great job in showing that we're all human beings, that we can all get along, that we can all be together, and I think that's a marvelous thing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've just always been a proponent of having a lot of diversity in the shows I've done. I just think that's the world we live in.
I believe what makes great television is wanting to watch particular characters.
I believe America wants and needs the shared experience of television. We far too often see in crises how television brings us together.
The joy for me of television is the sort of family feeling of being involved with an ensemble - the cast and the crew and the director of photography and the guys in the camera truck - and you're all coming together. There's a great feeling when that is a successful unit, a successful family.
I think it's weird seeing myself on the television, but it's great!
I actually think we should be trying to be rigorous in our thinking about television and the way it enters our lives and shapes the way so many people think.
I'm very humble in terms of knowing that television is an extraordinary collaborative medium and that one person alone cannot make a great TV show.
I think we're really - we're doing a really great job doing our show, and other shows are doing a great job doing theirs, and we'll just see what people have to say.
I have a deep respect for the fundamentals of television, the traditions of it, even, but I don't have any reverence for it.
I have very strong views on TV. There's no diversity, there's no choice. Things are decided by committee.
