“Television is a circus, a carnival, a traveling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, sideshow freaks, lion tamers and football players. We're in the boredom-killing business. So if you want the truth, go to god. Go to your gurus. Go to yourselves. Because that's the only place you're ever gonna find any real truth.”//无可挑剔的剧本与台词
