I'm not allowed on FOX, and I'm not allowed on MSNBC.
There's certain things that you can do on cable that you can't do here on network TV, so then you have to think outside the box a little bit.
Obviously there are different standards and practices that are allowed on cable versus network. You just have to embrace what your network is going to allow.
Here's my goal: I want to make a seriously dark show, and not on a network that has ever done that.
