1. How many Episodes and Seasons would your PENDARGON CYCLE have? 2.
How many Eps and Seasons would the TIMEDANCER CYCLE and FUTURE TENSE SAGA have, if FUTURE TENSE was a CYCLE and if it wasn't? 3. How many Eps and Seasons would the BAD CHARACTER CYCLE have? 4. How many Eps ans Scenes would the NEW OLYMPIAN CYCLE have? 6. How many Episodes and Scenes would the DARK AGES CYCLE have? 7. Where would each CYCLE be in the timeline? If it might give away possible show secrets, please tell me if it would,and don't answer Question 7, if it won't give away secrets, please do. 8. If the conversation with Elisa and Jason on the Clocktower in HUNTER'S MOON hadn't been erased, please tell me EXACTLY what it would be like. If you don't have the time to be totally specific, please tell me so and I'll give you my E-Mail Address so you can tell me another time when you can or want to. 9. If GARGOYLES starts again, how would you get TGC back on track with your Master Plan?
10. Is there any possible way we can get you to remove your limitations on the questions, like promises about no claiming credit, etc.?
Greg responds...
1. How many would you give me?
2. TimeDancer: 40 years worth. Future Tense: Unlimited.
3. Bad Guys? Probably unlimited.
4. Unlimited.
5. There is no 5. So I'll take this opportunity to explain the point I'm trying to make above: so far, I haven't run out of stories to tell about these characters. Quite the reverse, each story I did tell suggested more and more possibilities. It may be moot now, but assuming I ever get the chance to start things up again, I really don't see that changing.
6. 23 years worth.
7. Uh. I'm not sure I understand the question. Gargoyles, Pendragon, Bad Guys and New Olympians were all to have been set in the present (which is not to say that they might not have included the occasional flashback). Dark Ages would have begun in the year 971 and moved forward from there, at least until we caught up to the events of 994. Future Tense would have started in 2158 and moved forward from there. TimeDancer would have, well, danced around in time.
8. Check the archives. I typed the whole thing in.
9. I'm not sure. I've seen each of the last 12 episodes exactly once.
I'd have to make myself watch them again with an eye toward assessing the damage to my planned continuity. I'm not eager to see those 12 again, so I'm not going to watch them until I have a reason to. Right now I don't.
10. No. Sorry. I'm not interested in removing those limitations at this time.

Just a quick Q: What part of the master plan would Ariel have appeared in?
What would the role be?
Greg responds...
Not telling.

Dear Greg, I know you've been asked, but you (ahem) asked for it!
(1) Could you PLEASE tell us all about the ep you couldn't show? How much of a shock value? How far in development did this ep get, did it begin to be animated?
(2) Also, Pulease find a way to start Gargoyles again. We'll do everything to help. (3) How is the movie developing? What is the newest scoop on that?
(4) What are these Gargoyles novels from 1994 I've heard about from a friend of mine?? Did it follow the sh ow's concept, or was it a seperate universe with the same characters,like the comic was? Be proud of me, oh great Creator. My twin and I have "converted" a bunch of our friends and classmates to Gargoyles! A new order begins, Gargoylism! Bwa ha ha!
Thank you in advance. (I know you've been asked some of these before, but please, we need some solace)
Greg responds...
1. I wrote a premise. That's it. A one-page summary of the story.
2. I'm doing my best, but it's really not in my control.
3. I don't know. I have no new info.
4. I've never heard of them. From 1994? Are you sure they exist? There certainly weren't any novels written based in any way on our show.

Greg. Thanks again for the opportunity to ask a few questions. 1.
Probably the most disturbing images from Gargoyles was Demona shattering all of those human statues.
What happened to those remnants when the spell was broken and ho w was the disappearance of so many explained? 2.What was your planned lifespan for the cold-trio? Since they have robot bodies they could theoretically exist for as long as spare parts were available. 3.If Oberon's children were banished from Avalon , how could the Weird Sisters accompany the Archmage there on his attack? Wouldn't this be considered a violation? 4.What did you cut from Avalon part 2?
Greg responds...
1. It was pretty gruesome, I'd guess. I'm not sure it ever was explained, but I'm sure that there's still an open case file somewhere.
2. Lifespan? I guess they were immortal until they were damaged beyond repair. That doesn't mean they'd wind up living forever.
3. They were left behind as Guardians. It's another loophole.
4. A line here. A short scene there. More background, mostly regarding the Weird Sisters following Macbeth and Demona's careers for centuries. Although that sounds more interesting than it was.

Dear Greg, I know this may be a funny Q. Were Owen and Xanatos really friends? Or was it just a matter of servitude. What were the reasons why Owen came back to help them in the GPart2. Myfriend says they weren't friends at all. If th ey were, when and how did that start?
Greg responds...
I think they are friends. Moreso than either would admit. And I'd say that friendship developed and deepened over time, though the starting point was probably Xanatos' choice of Owen over Puck.

I know you have probably been asked these questions before before, but: 1) What is with Hudson's sword? Sometimes it cuts through solid stone, other times it just kind of hits things like a club 2) What did Titania say to Fox?
Greg responds...
1. A lot depends on the angle and force of the swing.
2. Something.
By the way, I'm sorry if some of my answers seem terse or rushed. Gore has just sent me about 300+ questions so that we can power through the backlog and reopen ASK GREG. So that's exactly what I'm trying to do. Power through as quickly as possible.

Greetings, Mr. Weisman. First, let me say I love the gargoyles show. Now let me ask a few questions... (1)I was a bit surprised no one else has noticed this, but in "Sanctuary" Angela said that the Princess told the hatchlings about Not re Dame Cathedral. How could this be? The Princess, Magus, and Tom went to Avalon in the late 900s, but construction on Notre Dame didn't begin until around 1100 or so and wasn't completed until the 1300s. Or did Tom just somehow end-up in Paris during on e of his trips outside Avalon? (2) Also, did the Magus have another name, and that was just his title, or is that simply his name. (3) And last, I was curious if some of the people working on Gargoyles were fans of Highlander, because there are so many para llels---the Gathering, immortals, Hunters, a secret society......Just curious. Well, thanks in advance for answering my questions(if you choose to do so, and then thanks for your time anyhow).
Greg responds...
1. Tom saw a lot over the years.
2. "Magus" was not his given name.
3. I enjoyed much of the original movie. Many episodes of the series are pretty good too. But I don't think it influence me that much. The concept of immortality is hardly original to Highlander. Neither are the other things you've mentioned. And we were creating some of it simultaneously with the creation of that series. Obviously, I can't be sure it had no influence, but no conscious influence, at least.

Dear Mr. Weisman, First I would like to thank you for creating a fabulous show. I only have one question, but this has been bugging me for a while. 1. Does Demona know about Goliath's relationship with Elisa?
Also (I know I sai d one), if Demona does know, is that why she keeps trying to kill Elisa or does she just plain hates her more than any other human? Thank you for your time. -Danielle Royer Homestead, Florida
Greg responds...
1. I think Demona intuited their feelings before either Goliath or Elisa were fully aware of them. I don't think she's conscious of any romantic relationship, mostly because, to date there isn't one yet. Demona's relationship to Elisa is complex. She has a lot of reasons to hate her.
Generic contempt for humans. The belief that humans always betray gargoyles. The deep-seated fear that Elisa proves that Demona's been wrong about humans for centuries. Goliath's obvious feelings for Elisa. Elisa's obvious feelings for Goliath. Etc.

Why did Oberon force his children to leave Avalon for a thousand years?
Greg responds...
Arrogance. Theirs and his. (Deja Vu again.)
