“If you're going to be in a series and it has commercial breaks... People say, "Oh, there's a difference between cable and network," and my response to that is, "No, there's a difference between sponsored and not sponsored." That's the thing.” PeopleIfsDifferencesBreakSeriesResponseCables Author:Scott Glenn
“I don't like to be compared to Joe Jackson. because Joe Jackson, I think, took money to throw World Series games. Well, I know I bet on my own team to win.

“The actual time you're acting is miniscule compared to the time you're getting ready to do the work. The big difference on series television is, there's not a lot of hanging-out time. You're pumping those pages out, you're doing six, seven, eight pages a day. And I like that pace.” BigsDifferencesActingTelevisionReadySixPagesSeriesSevenEightHanging OutPace Author:Joe Mantegna
“In an economy, an act, a habit, an institution, or a law, gives birth not only to an effect, but to a series of effects. Of these effects, the first only is immediate; it manifests itself simultaneously with its cause - it is seen. The others unfold in succession - they are not seen. Now this difference is enormous, for it is often true that when the immediate consequence is favorable, the ultimate consequences are fatal, and the converse.” GivingFirstsLawCausesDifferencesEconomyEffectsBirthHabitConsequenceUltimateInstitutionsSeriesInvestingEnormousSuccessionConverses Author:Frederic Bastiat
“People don't live their lives in a series of scenes that form a dramatic narrative, they don't speak in dialogue, they're not lit by a cinematographer or scored by a composer. The properties of real life and the properties of drama have almost nothing to do with each other. The difference between writing about reporters and being a reporter is the same as the difference between drawing a building and building a building.” PeopleLifeWritingRealFormSpeakDifferencesBuildingDramaScenePropertySeriesDrawingReal LifeDialogueNarrativeDramaticComposerReportersLitCinematographers Author:Aaron Sorkin
“I think the ambiguity of similarity and difference is very powerful. It's the same scene in different times of year read across the grid, and, of course, different locations reading vertically. But you can get confused and lost in the series. You force the mind, which is always comparing and contrasting, to stumble ... That ambiguity is very powerful. One is getting lost and refinding oneself.” ThinkingYearsMindDifferentCoursesReadingLostForceDifferencesPowerfulSceneSeriesOneselfCompareConfusedLocationAmbiguityVery PowerfulSimilarityDifferent TimesGridsGetting LostFinding OneselfLost And Confused Author:David Hockney
