“To be honest I don't watch the show, I don't watch any TV, so I have no idea what the show is about. I go to Hawaii, shot my scenes and script and 'Ciao.' I'm not a 'Lost' fanatic and it's a disappointment for thousands people and friends that are dying to know what will happen.

“My brain does like the idea of hosting a late-night show. My brain does like the idea of maybe having a show about me. So, I often pitch ideas and work on scripts and do that just because I may not be right about how I feel, so why not just do this, and if it happens and I got my own show, well maybe I would really end up falling in love with it.” IfsFeelsWellsMayDoeIdeasEndsShowsHappensNightFallMy OwnBrainLateFalling In LoveScriptsWhy NotLate NightI May Not Be Author:Jen Kirkman
“What happens is that as the scripts are rewritten and re-edited in order to make the story more compelling, you sometimes end up with what you could call a time singularity - where there's no way for everything that happens to happen in real time. It's something that you need to wink at.” WayNeedsRealEndsSometimesStoriesHappensOrderScriptsCompellingSingularityEdited Author:Michael Loceff
“Sometimes having no script, having no idea what is going to happen next, having no map, might be the way to go. Because life just happens, and when it does, how you handle it will teach you more about who you are than any class or test ever can. The best preparation for the rest of your life is, maybe, no preparation at all. Dive right in. Make mistakes. Break a few rules.

“There are certain things in the scripts that need to be planned: you know, big stunt sequences, battle sequences... you can't improvise that stuff. You can improvise when there's just two of you standing in a kitchen and the most dramatic thing that's going to happen is someone's going to open the fridge.” KnowsNeedsTwoBigsHappensCertainStuffBattleStandingScriptsDramaticKitchenSequenceFridges Author:Tom Hiddleston
“I read a ton of scripts. I read a lot of scripts, and you read one, and first of all, you felt like you read it in 14 minutes, because you're turning the pages so fast you can't wait to see what's going to happen.” FirstsHappensFeltWaitingMinutesLike YouPagesScripts Author:Denzel Washington

“We get the scripts before the table read, but I don't look at them until we go into the table read.

“When you're writing a script you have the option to embellish on life or switch the order of events or make it generally more cinematic. I would stick too closely to my own experience and not necessarily think about the fact that it needs to have an event happen. Realising that I could channel my own experience into a story that was slightly more cinematic was a very important moment for me - allowing myself to accept that the kind of screenwriting I'm doing is a work of fiction.” ThinkingNeedsWritingKindImportantMomentsFactsStoriesHappensOrderMy OwnFictionAcceptingEventsSticksScriptsAllowingRealisingScreenwritingCinematicImportant Moments Author:Lena Dunham
“We [comics] create our own reality on the show. I'm in a cocoon of the character's creation. Even within that reality, he's in a cocoon.

“When I choose projects, I don't stipulate between film or theatre or television.
