I'm Very Humble In Terms Of Knowing

I've Always Read A Lot Of Historical Books And I'm A Big Fan Of Documentaries, And I've Always Thought Of Ways To Do It.

Working As A Showrunner Has Made It Tougher To Watch Other Shows And Movies.

There Are Story-room Sessions Where You Think About The Big Picture, Like A Novel, But Once You Have Certain Things In Place, You Have To Treat Each Episode Like An Hour Of Tv, And Think That Maybe This Will Be The Only Episode That Anyone Will Ever Watch. You Want To Have Some Sort Of Beginning, Middle, And End To The Episode, Even If You Have Storylines That Are Carrying Over. You Still Want It To Feel Like A Cohesive Hour Of Entertainment. And You Can't Think About Both At The Same Time.

I Still Feel Driven To Try To Make Great Shows And To Make Each Episode Great.

I Was Never That Kid Who Grew Up In New York And Was Always At The Arthouse Watching Important Films. I Was The Kid Who Grew Up In The Midwest Where There Weren't Any Art Films, And I Watched Tv. And That Was Really The Medium That Affected Me And That I Fell In Love With.
