Absolutely.

I always choose fun. Thing is, if you do Fun right, then it *becomes* a career
move by virtue of showing you at your best.

But it's still possible to make mistakes. Early on, I was asked to come in on
Roswell, but at that time there was only a vague description of it -- kids in a
high school with aliens -- and it sounded dopey and I opted not to follow up.
Turns out it's a pretty cool show. But them's the chances you take.
