When I first started directing, I could have chosen a more lucrative path, with sitcoms and things like that.

So often in sitcoms, it's like, 'Oh, that husband of mine. He just screwed up again.' They just have to tolerate each other. It's not the most fun to play from my perspective. But by the same token, you can't be like, 'We're just like Romeo and Juliet, always in love.' David Denman
