I respect the hell out of everyone who does a network show. That is a marathon. It's so many episodes, and it can be a meat grinder. Anyone making a network show, and on top of that making a very good network show, that's an insane feat of Herculean endurance and fortitude.
我非常尊重每一个做网络节目的人。那是一场马拉松。有那么多的情节,它可以是一个绞肉机。任何一个制作网络节目的人,最重要的是制作一个非常好的网络节目,这是一个巨大的耐力和毅力的疯狂壮举。
There is a psychic gulf that exists between myself and my grandparents because they don't really speak English, and I don't speak Chinese, and that's my own personal shame because I did not learn, ever. I only saw my paternal grandma a few times in my life, and that's really crazy.
我和祖父母之间存在着一种心理鸿沟,因为他们不会说英语,我也不会说中文,这是我个人的耻辱,因为我从来没有学过。我一生中只见过我的祖母几次,那真是太疯狂了。
I think L.A. is underrated, and I love L.A., and I was born in California. But I'm pretty sure New York is the best city in the world - at least for an American guy like me.

I'm a huge believer in story being this invisible scaffolding that no one ever recognizes or realizes is actually making the audience engaged in what's going on. There is no formula for it.
我非常相信故事是一个看不见的脚手架,没有人认识到或意识到它实际上是在让观众参与正在发生的事情。这是没有公式的。
We got kind of into a rhythm at 'Parks' because there were so many characters that we had an A story, a B story, and a C story just about every episode. So by the middle of that show's run, we always had three stories, and it worked really well.
我们在《公园》里有了一种节奏,因为有太多的角色,所以我们每集都有一个a故事,一个B故事和一个C故事。所以在节目进行到一半的时候,我们总是有三个故事,而且效果非常好。
On 'Master of None,' the majority of the episodes were just one story, and that was by design because we really wanted to focus in on the character of Dev and get the audience in his head.
在《无名氏》中,大部分的情节都只是一个故事,这是经过设计的,因为我们真的想把注意力集中在德夫的角色上,让观众进入他的脑海。
Some of the most exciting moments in 'Star Wars' are when you're cutting between stories and you're building this momentum.
