If you could work on any TV show, what would it be (and why)?
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The creators are some of the funniest people in the industry ... OR ... Monday Night Football because it changed the way sports is covered for the better and I would relish working in that environment.
If you could meet someone,
who would it be? Foster Hewitt
. . . would love to pick his brain and learn from the master.
