I'm really considering all the schools. It's not fair for me to only look at certain... programs just because they had players that are at my stature.
I don't like to channel surf. You guys like it, don't you. You guys like to change the channel. We like to change you.
Back in 1975, we were making all the decisions about what people were going to watch.
It feels good to turn on the TV and have options, a variety. That's why television is so good.

Viewers can determine what they want to watch and what they don't want to watch.

One of the reasons I don't have a TV is, if I have a TV, then I don't do other things. At least for me, I'd rather just download the programs I want to watch and watch them, or I can buy them on DVD.
I like TV. It all depends what it is.
My primary job is to choose the programs, either to co-produce them, or acquire them after they're finished. So, I read a lot of scripts, I meet with producers and I read a lot of books.
Our D.V.R.s make up the schedule of the shows that we're passionate about. You want Jon Stewart? You've got it. Your D.V.R. will give that to you, as opposed to making the destination and the choice to spend that evening with a network.
