I mean, you really just need to put things in context.

1977 was just a different time for late-night television.

These things were the norms.

What we really need is an online petition to relaunch that classic show, Night Owls.

Howdy.

I'm Jeff Goldsmith, and this is the Q&A.

My agenda is simple.

Each week, I plan to bring you in-depth insights into the creative process of storytelling.

Folks, you know, Night Owls, which is the late night TV show of the movie Late Night with the Devil,

And you know, what else I dig? I dig today's sponsor, Final Draft over at FinalDraft.com.

And you know, there's still time to enter the big break. That's Final Draft's Big Break screenwriting contest. It's an

annual international feature film and television screenwriting contest designed to help launch the
