The Ecumenical Liberation Army. That’s not the one that kidnapped Patty Hearst?
不是 那个是”共生解♥放♥军♥”

A series out of what? What are we talking about?
我们有很多激进分子的怪事可说啊

他们会边抢银行边拍纪录片

and we’ve got ourselves a series.

我昨天给你们每个人都发了一份主题分♥析♥报告
Look, I sent you all a concept-analysis report yesterday.
有谁读了吗
Did any of you read it?
一句话概括就是 美国人正在变得死气沉沉
Well, in a nutshell, it said the American people are turning sullen.
他们被越南战争 水门事件
They’ve been clobbered by Vietnam, Watergate,
通货膨胀彻底打垮
inflation, the Depression.
他们试过上吊开枪乱搞
They’ve turned off, shot up and fucked themselves limp.
却都无济于事
And nothing helps.
所以这个主题分♥析♥报告总结出

美国人现在需要的是能把他们的愤怒宣泄出来的人
the American people want somebody to articulate their rage for them.
我六个月前接手这个工作时
I’ve been telling you people
就告诉过你们我要拍暴戾节目
since I took this job six months ago
而不是些老掉牙的片子
that I want angry shows.
我要反传统
I don’t want conventional programming on this network,
反成规
I want counterculture. I want antiestablishment.
其实我本不想在你们这些人面前像个工作狂似的
I don’t wanna play butch boss with you people.
可我接手这个部门后
When I took over this department
我发现这里的节目简直是电视史上最差的
it had the worst programming record in television history.
没有一个节目能排进前20
This network hasn’t one show in the top 20.
这个简直是电视业的笑话
This network is an industry joke.
我们最好能为明年九月的评选 攒出一个好栏目
And we better start putting together one winner for next September.
