Shonda Rhimes “Personal Quotes”

I don’t understand why people don’t understand that the world of TV should look like the world outside of TV.
[re troubles with Grey’s Anatomy (2005) cast where she had to learn…] how to be a boss and a leader versus somebody who was like, ‘Holy crap, I get to write a show every week.’ But could I have lived without that lesson? Absolutely.
