“Too often in television, even the leading creative forces in the medium trivialize what we do: ‘It’s just a sitcom,’ or ‘It’s only a procedural.’ We take solace in the fact that, at best, we provide escapist entertainment. HUMANITAS raises the bar by encouraging us to write and produce stories that maybe, actually, matter a little. In a time when it’s such a struggle to get a fragmented audience to connect with anything… well, what a pleasant surprise it will be when NEW VOICES not only finds and supports new voices, but serves as a roadmap for all of us as to what we need to be writing in the future.”
