I’ve literally pitched to every studio and network trying to get directing work. It’s really hard.
Whether via social media or in person, building your relationships is a long-term process, and the ultimate goal is to strengthen your network one person at a time.
One must pass through the network of influence. One is obligated to be influenced, and one accepts this influence very naturally. From the start, one doesn’t realize this. The first thing to know: one doesn’t realize one is influenced. One thinks he is already liberated, and one is far from it!

I’m not a child star, but you could say that I’ve grown up on TV. I went from being an unknown, down-and-out comic from Brooklyn and the Bronx to being a regular character on a major network comedy called ‘Martin.’ From there I went on to become the most notable black comic on ‘Saturday Night Live’ since Eddie Murphy.
You can build a filter app get people really excited, but the way to keep them is to provide long-term value. Long-term value is, in fact, being its own network.

We’ve said from the very beginning Black Lives Matter is a network and also, as a broad set of individuals, is an organization moving to transform the way our society values black lives. It’s not an ‘Internet movement.’
Tokens should not be listed before the start of the operations on the network, platform, or application. This is where many ICO’s seem to have lost their ways, and that’s risky.

Network heads don’t seemed to be turned off by the men who get older.

I think I get way too much credit for making what people consider to be smart choices, but it’s only because I made a decision to stop worrying about making money. I had done network sitcoms. I had a nest egg.
At the end of Season 1 of ‘Cheers’, it was the lowest rated show in all of network television… So we turn to ‘Bill Cosby’; when he came to Thursday night, he just exploded. And once the audience was there, we said, ‘Hey, by the way, we also have this other great show. It’s called ‘Cheers’.’
I think the most significant change in my life is the decision to do a series. An hourlong dramatic television series on a broadcast network swallows you and chews you up and refuses to spit you out. You’re making a decision that’s going to be a profound and significant impact on the practical aspects of your life.
ESPN is a very anchor-driven network, which I love.
Suddenly, everyone woke up, and everything was moving online. We’ve got Netflix making original series, CBS placing their network online, and suddenly, everyone’s announcing some kind of digital network for serving their content online.
I’ve always liked the fact that anyone with a great idea, access to the Internet, and an unrelenting will can spark a world-beating company simply by standing up code on the Internet and/or leveraging the information and relationship network that is the web. That’s how Facebook started, after all.
If you’re on a network show, it’s either some wacky sitcom or a drama where you’re servicing a procedure.
Network was just never the right fit with what I think is funny.
I think everybody else in Hollywood, including network execs, has the opportunity to ask for a raise or a change in scenery in a much shorter time frame than actors. But I do think the networks have to protect themselves.

Without networks like the Black Immigration Network, organizations like Haitian Women for Haitian Refugees would not get the support and resources and amplification that their voices that they need and deserve.
I’m as surprised as anybody. I never would have thought I’d be here talking about having a cooking show on the Food Network. It wasn’t on my list of things, but it’s fun, and I’m having a good time.
I’m more comfortable writing traditional protagonists. But ‘Steve Jobs’ and ‘The Social Network’ have antiheroes. I like to write antiheroes as if they’re making their case to God about why they should be allowed into heaven. I have to find something in that character that is like me and write to that.
