Change things Quote by Jimmy Smits
“The great thing about series television is that it's very fluid and there are a lot of things that come into play that will effect and change things down the line. On a week-to-week basis, as the writers are looking at the dailies, certain relationships pop. And then the audience factor comes into play.”
