05/06: Shore Interview with John Doyle
John Doyle has an interview with David Shore:
Q. When you have time, what TV shows do you watch for personal pleasure?
A. I love TV. I was the kid who watched way too much TV. I was the only kid who wasn't wasting his time playing; I was actually prepping for my career. And I think television right now is maybe as good as it's ever been. There are a shocking number of smart one-hour television shows. I'd name them all, but the only show your readers should be watching is 24. I mean House. The odd time that I get a chance to catch a movie, I frequently walk out realizing that I could have stayed home and seen a better story, better told by just turning on the TV. Movies have too often become about the event while television is almost always about the story.
