fans
I think fans have an outlet. Through social media, you can hear them.
creator tv
The director in TV and the writer and the creator are working very much hand in hand.
backseat few grand movies seems side takes
On the movie side of things, the difficulties come with so few movies being made, and when they are, it seems that it's a marketing game. Story sometimes takes a backseat to that one grand marketing idea.
wonderful
I think what's wonderful is that 'Community' has always had its voice, has always had it's vision, and that started from the very beginning.
huge responsibility
I think that getting responsibility and structure are huge parts of growing up.
influenced people sort
Look at people that influenced me - but I didn't know if I had that sort of 'I'm going to take you under my wing' person.
king
Honestly, it's terrible, but I don't know if I've ever really read a Stephen King novel.
inevitably watching
I was very much a latchkey kid. My parents would feel the back of the television to make sure I hadn't been watching it when they were gone, which inevitably I was.
follow people twitter
On the personal level, the people that follow you on Twitter are always nice to hear from.
experience finding means pieces saw setting work year
I feel like my experience on 'Community' was that I saw just how important that first year is for a series. That is where you work all the pieces out, and that means honing the characters' voices, setting that tone, finding your angle.
sketch
When I teach sketch writing, there's still a beginning, middle and end.
advanced technology tv
We all know that technology has advanced to the point of watching TV online.
good hit love
With writing, I love doing it, but there's that love-hate relationship: You're not having a good run, you've hit a wall; it's frustrating.
seems work
When you stop thinking about something, the idea comes to you. It seems to work.
