Kim Powers: 作为《2020》的高级编剧，我认为好的写作需要在结尾有一个像芭芭拉·沃尔特斯所说的“ta-da”的点睛之笔，总结一切。在节目制作中，我需要找到合适的结构，既能充分讲述故事以吸引观众，又能留下悬念，让他们在广告后继续观看。我受到南方文化的影响，我认为南方人是天生的讲故事者，我们每周在《2020》所做的核心工作就是讲故事，要有开头、结尾，揭示凶手及其作案动机，并探索人物的心理。在节目筛选中，我会捍卫自己的写作，因为我们希望尊重受害者及其亲人，并剖析每一个细节，非常关心节目的道德中心。
Deborah Roberts: 我很高兴向大家介绍《2020》的幕后功臣之一，我们的高级编剧Kim Powers。在节目中，我们非常注重赢得观众的时间，希望他们能坚持到故事的结尾。
