TV Quote of the Day (TV Writer Glen Mazzara, on “Nash Bridges” vs. “M*A*S*H”)


“On Nash Bridges, the cop is always driving a big yellow cop car and always finds a parking space right outside of the place he wants to go. That doesn’t feel real. Whereas on a show like M*A*S*H the characters always had to duck down before they entered a tent. That feels real.”—Glen Mazzara, scriptwriter for The Shield, describing the difference between his first series, Nash Bridges, and the TV classic M*A*S*H, quoted in Nick Edwards, “Drama Behind the Drama,” Financial Times, August 28, 2010
