The good thing about TV is that you can still watch the product, even if you're not in charge of it anymore.

My kids always say to me, 'Can we watch TV?' I say, 'Absolutely!' because then I can get something done. But then they say, and I wait for it, 'But can you watch with us?' My moment of freedom vanishes. So not only do I not think TV's that great and I hate sitting in front of it, but I have to with them.

The threat to free television. The reason television is free is because it is a life support system for commercials. That fundamental aspect is about to change.

TV is a fickle business. I'm only good for the length of my contract.

With less and less television being watched live, consumers are enjoying the freedom to record at home or in the cloud, watch locally or on the go, and binge watch entire series that they never had the time to enjoy.

What TV is extremely good at - and realize that this is 'all it does' - is discerning what large numbers of people think they want, and supplying it.

Television has to reflect back to you your own sense of security. It also has to mirror your sense of your own decency and your own limitations.

I have no television - I hate it.

I don't doll myself up for TV because I want people to accept me for who I am.

TV is what sells your product.
