The Bottle: A Conversation With Todd

Todd VanDerWerff: Lear is a feckless figure and Logan Roy, you would never say that about him. So I think that in a way, the explicit allusion to Lear is slightly misleading. He says he has affairs with younger women as a way to affirm that that's not true of him. 'I love television probably in a way that is, is, is vulnerable and embarrassing,' writes Van derWerff.
