मुझे लगता है कि प्लेग्राउंड (Playground) जिस दिशा में आगे बढ़ रहा है, वह मंच, फ़िल्म और टेलीविज़न के उस गहरे मेल की ओर है। फ़िल्म जगत के ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा लोग अब टेलीविज़न में काम कर रहे हैं—ज़ाहिर है, HBO में इसकी शुरुआत करने और इसे बढ़ावा देने में हमारा बहुत बड़ा योगदान रहा है। मुझे लगता है कि कंपनी का भविष्य इसी बात पर केंद्रित है कि हम इस तमाम प्रतिभा के संगम को लगातार तलाशते रहें।
