fit resisted stories weird
We've resisted a lot of weird stories because they don't fit the show.
bore medical watch
There is a procedural spine, but I wouldn't watch it for the medical stories. Frankly, it would bore me.
cannot characters closing essence explore fallen found love simply throw
We're not closing any doors. What we've found is everybody's so fallen in love with these characters that we have to explore it, but we cannot simply throw out the essence of the show, which is the procedural element.
ahead obviously quarter
The quarter obviously was very strong, ahead of pretty much everybody's expectations.
aware disaster fact knows love nature quite
We want to play with the fact that she's still in love with him, but she knows it's a disaster and he's still in love with her and isn't quite so aware of the disaster nature of it.
mean doing-what-you-love love-means
Doing what you love means dealing with things you don't.
people effort rewards
People choose the paths that grant them the greatest rewards for the least amount of effort.
two wish important
Only two things you ignore: things that aren't important and things you wish weren't important, and wishing never works.
opportunity thinking two-friends
There are a lot of explorations on TV of romantic relationships, and some are good and some are bad. I think there are very few explorations of male friendship that' s not just a wingman type friendship and not just an opportunity for humor, but that really explores two friends and their relationship.
suffering care planets
If we were to care about every person suffering on this planet, life would shut down.
friendship reason pleasure
You're supposed to trust friends. You have no reason to be his friend? That is part of the pleasure of friendship: trusting without absolute evidence and then being rewarded for that trust.
thinking interesting likes
I think you have to do the stories that interest you and hope an audience likes it, rather than doing stories that you think the audience will like, whether you like them or not. I think there has to be something that you find compelling and interesting, and then hopefully an audience will agree with you.
team house best-house
Like I always say, there's no 'I' in team. There is a 'me', though, if you jumble it up.
safety noise runway
Shorten the runway and you have fewer takeoffs and landings, shorten the runway and you enhance safety and reduce the noise, ... It also reduces the justification for the buyout as it is now being proposed.
