Producer Afire
-No more this or that number of episodes by contract. Churn ‘em out! You churn, I pay! Simple!
-I’ll run outa people. And plots.
-What plots? Protagonist loses ALL THE TIME!
-Writers want him rarely win.
-Never! Didn’t Lucy always pull the football away so CHARLIE BROWN KICKS AT NADA AND GOES ON HIS ASS?
-Always. But...you can exhaust your actors too!
-Plug in lookalikes!
-Even for our anti-hero?
-Costume the new dude! FRENCH REVOLUTION, ROLLER DERBY!
-I get the gist. All the gists. Great wealth and artistic suicide!
-KEEP FUCKIN SPENDING! Better than sex.

Deciding. Not.
The Everyday Anti-Hero
-As I see it, all your alternatives
are lousy.
-I see it the same way, or ways.
-Flip a coin?
-That. Or do nothing.
-You have vast experience in the latter.
-With pride! My best decisions have been
nothing.
-Are you sure you're American? Frontier
Spirit? Can DO? Heart for every fate?
-I don't go there. It's nervous-making.
-Uh huh? Well, have we solved your little
problem?...asking with some sarcasm.
-Good as can be expected.
-How does your wife regards all this.
-Endlessly amusing.
