I don't know how that budget would have been worked out, but that was the initial idea. Obviously, we couldn't have had a show with nine expensive actors in it. It was very nice that they were even interested in doing that. But, I was so proud of what we'd done that I couldn't think of a compelling reason to do a lesser version of it.

As you grow and change, you become possibly someone else. You want to go back to your family of origin and say, ‘Do you still love me? Would you still love me if I become X or Y or Z? When will you stop loving me? Is this unconditional love and if not what are the conditions?’
Jill Soloway

Anger is not a real feeling. Every time in my life I've ever been angry, it's because I was scared, or because I was sad and I didn't know it. Anger doesn't just come out of a vacuum.
Damon Lindelof

To me, when you have people trying to put their best foot forward but facing conflict, that's when stories are the most interesting.

There are so many shows out there, so you really need to work hard to separate yourself and cut through the static.

Everybody knows that everybody dies. But not every day. Not today. Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all. Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair and the Doctor comes to call, everybody lives.

You have to totally change the way that society's structured in order to being to heal.

I said to my parents that I don't even know if there should be an Israel. And they were just so upset and hurt.

There were a couple times when we started working out the stories - and I was doing this with Jim Vallely and our friend Dean Lorey, who was on the show originally - and we were working on a movie. There would be some fan fiction things that would scoop us. It happened a couple times, where I thought, Well, we can't do that!

Dance was always part of my life because I was a dancer and my mother was a dancer, and I love the theater.

If it’s time to go, remember what you’re leaving. Remember the best.

Thank you for seeing me on the days when I couldn't see myself.

The fans have access to the show and the creators, even if it's not direct. I don't know any television creators that don't follow the message boards. The feedback is so immediate, to see what is working and what isn't, and what's working better than you anticipated.
Jeff Pinkner

[The Doctor, Capt. Jack and Rose are cornered by the empty children.] The Doctor: Go to your room! Go to your room! I mean it. I'm very, very angry with you. I'm very, very cross! GO! TO! YOUR! ROOM! [The children lurch away and obey him.] I'm really glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words.

I've never had a working relationship like I have with them. I developed a lot of the design of this show with them. That conversation was about, What are your needs? What are you looking for? Will this work for you guys? Will a show work where you've got one episode per character? They really were a creative partner.

Most of the network television audience now is primarily women, but I think that's because the shows are developed to appeal to women. I don't know that there are too many shows that appeal to guys anymore. I'm not sure why that is, but I think that it may have something to do with the fact that most development staffs are women.

I think shows that are completely dramatic are a lie. People use humor to cope. That is how we deal with things. In the darkest situations, there's humor. And if you don't show that, you're not being true to real life.
Jenji Kohan

One of the best things about reading comic books, when you're a kid or an adult, is watching the characters cross-over. What happens in one book affects the other, and these shows are so tightly knit that it feels like one giant show.
Andrew Kreisberg

You'll go out of business if you think people are stupid.
Steven Moffat

When we finally had a cast and could see what they could do, here was an opportunity to go back and modify things. We didn't actually do that much modifying, but we did enough to make it feel as if they fit in their own skin, and we got a lot of good input from them. They're a terrific cast. They worked really hard.

I will tell you that we're all human beings, and we all care about what people think of us. But in general, their outlook is, We're not looking at opening night numbers. We're not looking at opening night box office. We want this to be part of the reason you come to our service.

I believe that the obsessive worship of movie, TV and sports figures is less likely to produce spiritual gain than praying to Thor.
Chuck Lorre
Image
Maybe they continued to agree with Archie Bunker - as I said earlier, you can't change people's minds, but you can get them to think.
Norman Lear

I asked my publisher what would happen if he sold all the copies of my book he'd printed. He said 'I'll just print another ten'.
