I mean it’s potentially the most offensive show in the history of television. And to me it’s also the most pure feminist and empowering statement I ever made.

It’s somebody building themselves from nothing. As has been told in legend and is actually true, I thought of it because I was having lunch with Eliza, and she was talking about what everybody expected from her. “Well, these people say I should be this, and these people say I should be that.”

And I was like, oh, click, that’s the show. And I know what the name is. And when I know the name, that’s usually a bad sign.

I literally went home and said to my wife, “Honey, I accidentally created a Fox show.”
