Since when Goliath and Demona were in love?
Greg responds...
Since they were young, if I understand the question.

Why Hudson has only one eye?
Greg responds...
He has two eyes. One was blinded in battle against the
Archmage.

Why they cancelled Gargoyles?Why The Goliath Chronicles were draw by
Nelvana or something like that?
Greg responds...
See above. Goliath Chronicles was subcontracted to Nelvana for
economic reasons which I don't pretend to understand.

Thanks.Great show!A lot better than the Ninja Turtles.Gargoyles lasted
only four years and the Ninja Turtles lasted 10!Why?I also noticed that the
ninja turtles in it's second season also had 65!Like gargoyles.Why?Please
answer me.For the love of a fan.
Greg responds...
In those days, 65 was considered a complete package of episodes.
Enough to run five days a week for one quarter of the year.
I can't tell you why Turtles lasted as long as it has, but
Gargoyles ended after 2 (or 3) seasons, because the ratings didn't seem
strong enough to Disney for them to justify it's ongoing existence,
given that they had 65 (or 78) episodes already in the can.

Hi Greg. :)
(1) So how have you been doing?
(2) I have been wondering about Katana's name. Is there a real life
story as to how you and/or your staff came up with that name? If so, what
is it?
(3) Is there a story as to how she got that name in the actual garg
universe? If so, what is it?
(4) Now for a few more questions about the Phoenix Gate. Is there any
type of limit to when the gate can go to?
(5) If so, does that limit change depending on who is using the gate?
(6) What I mean is, is the gate limited (in things like traveling to
the future) on what one knows of the future? If one doesn't know what the
future holds, can they travel into the future using the Gate?
Greg responds...
1) Eh, O.K. How about you?
2) I came up with it. It seemed right.
3) Probably there is. But I haven't thought about that yet.
4) Nope.
5) N.A.
6) Yep.

Hi, Greg. I've been wondering this ever since I first saw "City of
Stone", and, being the twisted person I am, I was wondering, what would happen
if Demona and/or Macbeth were decapitated by someone else? Kind of
morbid, I know, but it's one of those questions even fanfics can't answer.
Greg responds...
I don't know. But I'm not worried about it, cause dramatically,
it's not going to happen.

Hello Mr. Weisman. I appologise if any of these questions have been
asked before. In that case I must have missed them.
1. I have been wondering. When the sun comes up, gargoyles turn to
stone. When the sun is gone, they wake up. But what would happen during a
solar eclipse?
2. I can understand the reasons why you don't want to see any original
ideas. You don't want someone to sue you because he thinks he's given
you an idea, even though you thought of the same thing before you even met
him. I'm wondering though, did this ever really happen to you so far?
Greg responds...
1) Generally. One would assume their biological clocks would
be unaffected by a solar eclipse... unless, the eclipse was some kind of
magical event that had some kind of magical influence on them.
2) It's happened to many people. I personally have never been
sued under this exact scenario. But at any rate, I don't want to join
the club. And I have had the situation occur where a person stopped
short of suing. Someone suggested ideas to me that I already had
planned to do. When I told them, they looked at me like I had just
ripped them off. I don't want to take any chances. (Someone is suing
Disney claiming that he created Gargoyles. The fact that he's claiming
to have created the show in 1993, when I can document that my team and I
started working on it in 1991 doesn't seem to faze him much.)

Hey Greg,
I have question to ask you that's more personal than those I've asked
in the past. As you may but probably don't remember, I mentioned that I
dabble in fanfiction. Lately, though, I've sort of lost the urge to write.
I've been puttering around on my current piece for more than half a year, and I
just can't seem to find my inspiration. My question is: does this ever
happen to you? And if so, how do you combat it?
Greg responds...
I've never lost the urge to write. At least not so far,
thankfully. But I've never been any good at accomplishing anything
without a real deadline. (Setting an imaginary one for myself has never
worked.) When I have an assignment, I do periodically get stuck. I
pace a lot. But I eventually work my way through it. Fanfiction isn't
something I've tried. And I'm only disciplined when I have an external
deadline. Otherwise I'm lazy as hell. I don't know if that helps, but
one thing you might try is to take a class in creative writing. Let the
instructor impose a deadline and see if that helps you.

Hi greg,
I was watching a show about ancient Mayan civilizations in Spanish
class, and I noticed a few things: one thing I noticed was a Mayan statue
that looked like it had eye ridges, a bat with "wings like a dragon"
(that's what the video said), and finally a snake carving that could have easily
been a gargoyle like the one in Guatemala.
1) Is this the sort of thing that gave you the idea for the Green, or
did you not notice these types of things?
2) Will Alexander be alive in 2158?
3) Will Alex be (magically) as strong, or stronger than say Puck or
Merlin?
4) Was Demona ever in love with anyone else during the 1000 years
that Goliath was asleep? Any chance I can get you to tell me who?
Greg responds...
1). The former.
2). Yes.
3). As Puck? I doubt it. Puck is a 100% changeling, and Alex
is only 25%. But Alex has a good teacher and a lot of potential. As
Merlin? The question is how much time Alex dedicates to his magical
studies. He may have other interests as well.
4) Largely, the answer is NO. To both questions.

Greg,
Congrats on a great show!!! :) I was just wondering if the worse
happens and Gargoyles is not brought back on TV do you have any plans to
continue the story in another media?
Greg responds...
I'd love to, and I have periodically looked into that, with no
success to date.
