I've seen it on TV

A note from Roberta. Deb’s coming home soon; I swear! But she left me this one too.

I can’t remember where I read this or heard this. Maybe…probably…at the Burns Center event about which we’ve written so much, but maybe not.

When Matthew Weiner is telling a writer they’re going in the wrong direction, what he says is, “I’ve seen it on TV.” He went on to explain that Mad Men isn’t people on TV or in the movies, it’s people who watch the people on TV and in the movies.

I think that’s so brilliant.
