“I just have a different impression of the human race. I think we're really resilient. I think there are a lot of cynical people out there right now, and probably for good reason. But I think that ever cynic is really a damaged romantic, and they really, really, really want things to be good. And if that's the case, I don't need to tell a story that says, "Humanity, look what you've done. Now you can't go out. There's no sun. Look how you've wrecked the world." That's not me. That's not my job.” PeopleIfsThinkingWorldWantNeedsHumansLooksDifferentReasonDoneStoriesJobsHumanityRaceCasesSunRight NowBe GoodImpressionHuman RaceCynicalResilientCynic Author:J.H. Wyman
“I want to talk about hope. Are we going to be completely lambasted by things we don't see coming? Yeah. Is it going to damage the human race and hurt us? Probably many times.

“I believe in the human spirit. And usually the people who are following me - my fans and things like that - are like-minded people, in that regard. They like to hear about people being in pain, but that are okay, and people feeling like they can't go on, but then they find a reason to go on. How do you marry someone and love them, and then they die? How does that happen? Why are we on this journey? They want to talk about things, and they want to understand. So, this is the perfect vehicle for that.” PeopleWantBelieveHumansDoeReasonFeelingsHappensPainSpiritDiesI BelievePerfectJourneyFansGoes OnOkayAnd LoveRegardFollowingI Believe InVehicleHuman Spirit Author:J.H.

“Life is painful sometimes. It touches everyone, so you may as well try to look for other answers and find peace. So, it is difficult to write those types of things because nobody wants to tell sad stories. I think that I'll always tell stories about human hope.

“One thing Fringe has is no shortage of ideas. There are so many jumping off points that we could use and have thought about. I just wouldn't want to pull a trick like that on the viewers. I really want to reward them.

“Jeff always says, "In the cinema, everybody goes to sci-fi. Those are the biggest movies. But, in television, nobody wants to touch it with a barge pole." It's strange. I think it's because maybe there's a legacy of television shows that depicted sci-fi in a certain way that turns off a lot of viewers, so maybe there's a negative connotation.” ThinkingWayWantShowsCertainTurnsTelevisionStrangeNegativeLegacyCinemaSci FiViewersTelevision ShowsTurn OffConnotationBarges Author:J.H.

“The God-honest truth is that Jeff and I just do what we do. You have no control. We didn't have control last year, or the year before either, or the year before that. We can only do what we do, which is to make the show that we love, continue to follow the path for the stories that we want to tell, tell great and compelling stories, week-to-week, that interest our fans, and really hope for the best.” WantYearsStoriesShowsLastsInterestPathWeekFansHonestTruth IsLast YearCompellingHoping For The BestHonest TruthEither Or Author:J.H.
