Yeah, I'm a vegetarian - but still, some things are just nasty. I like salads. But sometimes, they get too creative. I like regular food, just no meat in it.
There's a lot of creative freedom. Acting is a whole boatload of fun, but I prefer to do it on my own terms.

Every so often, it's time to make a change with a showrunner; you evaluate the creative and how the show is run, how the writing staff works.
