Quotes from the Show:
"It really comes from an idea, a book or a format or an original idea, and it's about where can it live in the purest form for that idea instead of trying to jam everything into one box or the other."
"Young people grow up and they want to create something... those creative juices are now naturally gravitating towards television."
"Word of mouth has become so much more important and the ability for people to watch all the episodes of a show in one day, and say, 'I watched this thing. It was great,' and if enough people say that in your Facebook newsfeed, you think to yourself, 'Okay maybe there's something to it.'"
