I was young, and it was a show about old people, and it was a very traditional show, but it was also an amazing training ground for a joke-writer. It forced me to learn those skills.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) The form came out of the function because it is for the audience that already knows the show, while hoping to get a new audience, too.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I joked recently that I thought 30 seconds a day for three years would be the best way to enjoy it, and I’m going to stand by that statement.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Shows don’t reunite because television doesn’t work that way. There’s no profit model and people go off to do other work.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) The people that always impress me are the ones that are curious about what they’re going to do next.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) When we were making ‘Arrested Development,’ it was the hardest thing I’d ever done. You know, nobody was watching. We weren’t getting feedback. The job wasn’t paying very well. But the one thing I did feel confident about was: No one will ever be able to do this again. Because no one would be stupid enough to try.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) When I was on ‘The Golden Girls,’ we’d have eight scenes per show. And when ‘Seinfeld’ came along, they went to, like, 30 scenes a show, which was revolutionary. ‘Arrested Development’ has probably got 60 scenes per show.

I always try to keep it very simple at its heart.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) With ‘Arrested Development,’ we tried showing the deep disdain that connects a family. We wanted to hold up a mirror to American society. And, just as predicted, America looked away.  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Even on the old show, we would maybe not all be in the scene. Sometimes there would be a penthouse scene and everyone would get together. But, even in that context, it would be because somebody was missing  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Well, at the time, you have to remember that we were not successful. The Showtime offer, as it was presented to me, was half the money for half the show. I was not interested, at that point, in doing a smaller cast and a more simplified Arrested Development  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) We will be looking at things like the confluence of a scene, and we still have all these creative decisions to make. In general, we’re going to just try to make these under a half-hour. We’re going to try to take that kind of cable TV comedy model  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I hope to take advantage of the Netflix organism and see if there are ways to get in new material and see if there are ways to do deleted scenes  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Violence has not really been an issue. Even in my wildest hopes, I wasn’t trying to get violence in  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) We mapped out the whole movie, and then worked backwards from that to do these shows. It might not be a movie. It might be something else  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) First of all, there is absolutely an order that we have put together to create the maximum number of surprises, but that’s just part of our storytelling  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) We started gearing our content more to what makes us laugh and stories we wanted to tell, and we had to decide, early on, to not be precious about it  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) One of the great things about TV is the story to tell can be very internal and really character-based  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Everybody keeps falling back to the same patterns without doing too much dramaturgy  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I think everybody wants to be loved, all the time, but it’s not realistic. It’s also not realistic, if you’re going to be ambitious, in terms of changing the form or evolving  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) There’s a lot that you can do in television that you can’t do with a film, theoretically. At the time, the only possibility was to do a movie  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I think it’s a big part of being a creative person  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Television is so much about continuing to work with people  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) If you’ve never watched people watch television, I don’t recommend it. It’s not an exciting thing to do  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) The people that always impress me are the ones that are curious about what they’re going to do next  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I think of there being two conditions that creative people go through. I think it’s fear and curiosity  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I have this identity for myself as a writer and the only thing that can happen is that I chip away from it  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) Regret is a tricky word. Here’s a big secret: nobody knows what wasn’t  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) I always liked magic. I was always embarrassed by liking magic because I liked the fact that they’re just lying  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes) For the most part you are dealing with jealousy, you are dealing with love, you’re dealing with hatred, you are dealing with revenge and all of these sort of classic things  (Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes)
