You can watch any episode you want and have a compelling story being told.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Any show I'm working on, I want the stories to always be about something, and to have the potential to be emotional. That's the kind of story that I like.
In order to have a TV series, you have to have a good idea for the story.
I'm a regular part of the TV audience world, and I know that I like shows that I would watch. And this is a series that I definitely would watch. And some episodes are better than others.
I have been sent three or four scripts for television series, but there wasn't anything I really wanted to do. I want to tell a good story, whether it's a TV show, a movie, whatever. That's really my No. 1 criteria.
People love cliches. If you can give people cliches, that's very good TV, then.
When you're making a television show, it's about the story and arc of the show rather than any particular episode or director.
If you don't have a story that will hold the audience, you won't have a successful show.
All TV shows are basically part of the same storyline.
Sitcom storylines are usually incredibly contrived.
I don't think you can really make television based on what you think audiences want. You can only make stories that you like, because you have to watch it so many times.
