Yesterday Vulture dropped a Quentin Tarantino interview that just kept on giving, with quotable after quotable offering fresh insight into his mindset, career goals, the industry, and even random things you didn't know you needed QT to help you realize, like his perfect summation of It Follows. But wait! There's more: the extended outtakes from the interview have just been liberated, and they are equally entertaining and intriguing. Most notably: the implication that we may see a Quentin Tarantino joint on the small screen one day.

How fucking exciting does the prospect of a QT written and directed miniseries and/or anthology show—excuse me, filmed novel—sound? Fam might've just spoiled my excitement for Hateful Eight off of the fantasizing about this now. QT's already dabbled in television: he guest-directed episodes of ER and CSI and made a pretty sweet bad guy in an awesome two-part episode of the great underrated show of our time, Alias (so would he act in this filmed novel too?!). Second most intriguing what-if of the outtakes: the reveal that while he isn't really intent on making a sci-fi film, he does have an idea for one that's apparently so good he can't expand on it further because the millions of people poring over the interview would surely steal it. Let us pray that Quentin eventually gets out every last one of his ideas.

Elsewhere in the outtakes he expands on the problems he had with It Follows and why Death Proof was the last present-day set story he made.
