Maybe We’ve Just Realized That
Joshua Miller: I was just walking through the Fox Lot, talking about rebooting a show we created a prequel for, and there’s no one there.
Margaret Cho: You have to sign a heavy non-disclosure thing if you appear anywhere with the Muppets.
Miller: The one piece of dialogue was, “Isn’t it delicious?”
Cho: [With very little hesitation] I always forget that part.
Miller: Maybe we’ve just realized that.

Cho: Like, what is wrong with drag queens? There's nothing inherently wrong with it, but somehow they've made it into this very sinister idea.
Miller: That’s a subgenre we need back, and I think Ryan Murphy tries to go there.
Cho: There's a Carolina in there somewhere.
Miller: It’s outsider art. I know.
Cho: Well, I hope so. [laughs]

Miller: Sometimes I come in here and I just want to fall on the ground and cry. There’s not enough weird, sad, solemn horror movies anymore.
Cho: I wish that it continued on because we need that now, that kind of consciousness. I very rarely go.
Miller: In certain ways, it’s daunting to do that.
Cho: Yeah. But I love that rock stars are standing up for gay rights.
Miller: In your contract at 20th or wherever you were under contract, you had a moral turpitude clause, right?
