It does my head in just thinking about how those writers and musicians can live a life and create so much works as well, it's something I find myself thinking about all the time, it's not just that though, usually a great band for instance has 4-5 people, and not only do you need one prolific writer, you need genuinely talented and exciting players who can also sort of write stuff, pretty well..
I just look at some bands or tv shows in I'm in awe and surely it has to be destiny and something way higher than just sheer luck..
Take curb your enthusiasm and Seinfeld, now there were some crazy factors that made those shows remotely possible...
Jerry met Larry at some point, aka Lennon/Mcartney, Larry David had a neighbour who was Michael Richards aka (Kramer) ...without any of those three angles and there is more I have not mentioned, without any of those many ingredients then Seinfeld the show never exists, and even if you take that into account, the fact that the show was given a contract is another lucky/miracle sort of situation. Whether you like Seinfeld or not it shaped modern comedies as we now know it. All that lead to the most successful comedy shows of all time followed by ten years of curb your enthusiasm...
Man, just listen to Larry here (especially when hen he says he hates writing)...what he says is kind of amazing, especially if anyone of us here are aspiring to write or create our own stuff..
Very good observation. It's very destined. Fateful. So many sliding doors going on all at once.
I of course loved Seinfeld/Curb Your Enthusiasm.
