Small detail, but note how his gesture for "turning on the tv" is still a knob, not a remote control.

Everything Mamet has said for the past 20 years or so has sounded like a writer who was SERIOUSLY screwed over by Hollywood and Broadway. Which, maybe, but does he really hold Gregory Mosher in that little regard?
