Why do you single out the cast? There can be other non-writer types who get to make serious calls.

True enough. I've no idea why I single out cast -- I suppose, just from not thinking about it enough. I suppose when I say 'power' on a show, I refer to being able to make the story suck or not suck, which should really be the writers and producers responsibility (in my head).
