"I want to think that every single participant — actor, writer, director — will get more television work as a direct result of this being broadcast."

MF: You know, I always have misgivings, born of my experiences of the past. And I'm trying to go, "It'll go different this time." There is a little bit lagging in my head like, is this it? Is this just gonna be it, like, "We've done those. And now we don't need to do disability anymore . . . in that authentic way"? I don't think so. I want to think that every single participant — actor, writer, director — will get more television work as a direct result of this being broadcast. That is my real hope, Chris, to be honest. I'm like any actor: I want an Oscar. [laughs] But the creation of disabled awareness that I've had in doing this has been my crowning joy. It's the one thing I'm most proud of in my whole professional life.
