aware creative discuss evening fresh future happening heard meets monday people regularly rules sick team tired uncertain
In Holland, every Monday evening my creative team meets to discuss fresh new ideas. We try to look at what's happening in the world. Are there trends? Are there new developments we should be aware of? And regularly we heard that people are uncertain about the future. People are sick and tired of the rules and regulations.
hits worked
Look at my track record: All of the big hits we created in Holland worked globally.
build chaos create gives happiness laws people positive program scratch society start
'Utopia' is a positive and constructive program that gives people the opportunity, if you can start all over again, start from scratch and create laws and make decisions, will you be able to build a society that is better than the one we have; will it be chaos or happiness.
learn life watching
You learn more about life from watching 'Big Brother' than from reading a book.
Working on being creative in the TV world is endless. It never stops. It's a challenge that never disappears.
created deliver foresee genre periods stuff
When we started with 'Big Brother' and created the reality genre, no one could ever foresee that there was so much space in the genre that it could deliver so many formats. There will be periods where there is not enough new stuff to keep the genre alive. But it will never die.
