Why did the FBI fire Matt? Did they just think that he was too much of a nutcase, or was there some darker reason (such as pressure from the Illuminati) involved?
Both.
Some time ago, I heard a fellow "Gargoyles" fan say that he considered Matt something of a hypocrite in that, while he was setting out to expose the Illuminati to the world, he was willingly joining in the efforts to keep the gargoyles a secret and hiding them, even after he became the head of the Gargoyle Task Force - and also condemned Elisa for keeping the gargoyles a secret, especially from Captain Chavez. I didn't agree with that person, feeling that there was a difference between exposing a ruthless and machiavellian secret society that's meddling in everybody's lives and exposing a group of extremely rare beings who have to hide from the world because most humans consider them monsters and would hunt them down if they knew about them, but I felt vaguely bothered by it, and thought that I'd ask you what your thoughts on the matter were.
My reasoning is similar to yours, but I can also live with the notion that Matt is in fact being a bit of a hypocrite -- for a good cause.
As a writer, I LIKE the stress that dilemma will eventually cause. Human beings are complex. We contain multitudes.
Would Rosiara Sanchez or Peter Choi (the heroic teens from the newspaper story in _High Noon_) have made an appearance in a future episode of GARGOYLES? (Given its history of sneaking in foreshadowings....)
Yes.
Was the cop riding with Officer Morgan in _Temptation_ his partner?
Yes.
A tongue-in-cheek riff on Todd's religion question: Have you ever worked out if the men and women of the 23rd Precinct favor certain types of donut over others?
There are a lot of cops in that precinct house. Many donut varieties are popular.
What are Preston Vogel's thoughts vis-a-vis his evil twin Owen? His "I assure you, sir, we are not" reply when Petros asked if he and Owen were related came out awfully smooth. (Preston's coolness may be somewhat less remarkable when you consider how much practice he must have with that line. He's still a lot more nonchalant about it than I'd expected, though. Doppelgangeren are creepy.)
I don't think it was smooth at all. I think he was affronted. He just has a very thin range of demonstrable emotion.
I do think Owen bothers him.
What did Renard do when he was informed about Vogel's escapades in Guatemala?
I'm not sure he was ever informed. He's not a well man.
a- Why does Preston wear that cheesy bow tie? b- Is this why Owen wears a regular one (or vice versa)?
a. He likes the look.
b. Owen's got better taste.
Does Preston clock out at the end of the day, or is he also work as Renard's live-in assistant?
At his level, there are no timeclocks to punch. And I won't pretend he has much of a life outside his job, but he does have downtime. But he is Owen to Renard's Xanatos.
1) Is Preston Vogel a native-born American?
2) Does he have Sephardic or Ashkenazic roots? (If he isn't a convert, that is.)
1. Yes.
2. What makes you think he's Jewish at all?
How did Matt first learn about the Illuminati's existence?
Good question. Fun answer. But it's a long story.
Is any of the main characters currently a member of a organization, fan-, or social club? (Other than the Illuminati Society, Patrolmen's Benevolent Association, Quarrymen, and Young Ganymede [smirk], I mean.)
Well, I think you know who's in the Quarrymen.
All the cops are in the union.
What do you consider a 'main' character?
Was any of the main characters a member of a scouting organization?
I don't know. Matt, maybe. Tony Dracon.
I know you've asked that there be "no more food questions", but hey, it's been a while... ^_^
1) Are any of the characters we know vegetarian? Elisa certainly isn't, and (judging from the contents of his walk-in freezer) neither is Xanatos.
2) Do Matt and Preston observe the laws of Kashrut?
1. I can't think of anyone off-hand.
2. I don't know what "Kashrut" is, so I tend to doubt it.
1) What does Travis Marshall think of gargoyles?
2) Does he think gargoyles are monsters and deserve to be destroyed or does he have a unique opinion about gargoyles?
1. I think Travis is struggling to keep an open-mind. To remain objective until he has more information.
2. See above.
Quite some time ago you told us some of the religions of the humans and you asked whether you'd missed anyone. No-one major, but I was just wondering if you've given any thought in the religions of the following people:
1)Margot Yale
2)Brendan
3)Officer Morgan
4)Fara Maku
5)Taya
6)Taoro
7)The Emir
8)Travis Marshall?
I know most of these are very minor characters and that you probably haven't given any thought into them, but I was just wondering.
1. Wasp.
2. Wasp.
3. I'm not sure. Christian of some denomination.
4. He practices the ancient religion of his people.
5. Is this Tea? I don't think she practices anything.
6. I'm not sure who you mean?
7. I'm sure he was Muslim originally. He's dead now.
8. I think he probably comes from a Protestant background, but I don't see him as being very religious now. Godless media and all that.
In the episode the journey Vinnie saved Goliath and Elisa from being killed by Jon Castaway and was given a job in Japan by an unknown man most likely being Taro. My Question is since Vinnie made peace with Goliath would Vinnie cause problems for Taro in his evil plans for the Ishimera clan?
Vinnie tends to cause problems everywhere he goes. Mostly for Vinnie.
was matt bluestone ever going to have a significant other? he is probably my favirote human character on the show, but besides his FBI past, NYPD present and Illuminati future you never seemed to go very far into his personal life. did you plan to?
Eventually.
why was matt b. made head of the gargoyles task force? wasn't there anyone else more qualified? you know with the FBI, NYPD, Illuminati, Recap operator, and head of this task force, matt has had a busy career!!!
Matt's part of the NYPD. And it was an NYPD task force. The experience you list makes him a good candidate. Keep in mind, he wasn't still working for the FBI or operating RECAP. And Chavez didn't know about his Illuminati membership.
Sooo... Why *was* Margot Yale in Paris? Coincidentally at about the same time as the Avalon tour group?
Vacation.
1)Do you plan on having Brendan and Margot Yale a 'til death do we part' couple? The only time we see them is when they go out, but who knows what happens when their at home? Actually I'm guessing you probably do know what they are like at home, and I'm also guessing that their behaviour is no different to when they are out on the streets.
2)Will they ever have any children?
1. I doubt their behavior alters when they're in private, but they must have some reason to stay together.
2. I'm not saying.
Greg, I have a minor interest in geneology. Could you please clarify for me what nationalities the following characters are:
1) Elisa, half African-American, half Native American.
2) Xanatos, Greek
3) Matt, I don't know
4) Fox--- well, her dad's probably French and her mom's a fairy...
5) Maria Chavez, Spanish
Could you help me here?
---Ytt
1. Yes.
2. Greek-American, yes.
3. Jewish-American.
4. Her dad's French-American, yes.
5. Maria's Hispanic-American.
As much as I loathe the idea of a "Subway Series," I nevertheless find myself interested in the answer to the following question. Given that Gargoyles is set primarily in New York (the only place where anyone could possibly care about the outcome of a Subway Series), are the following characters Mets fans or Yankee fans:
1. Elisa
2. Xanatos
3. Matt
4. Owen
5. Goliath
6. Demona
7. Macbeth
Uh, I live in L.A. and I thought the subway series was fascinating.
1. Elisa - Mets
2. Xanatos - Yankees
3. Matt - Yankees
4. Owen - Neutral
5. Goliath - Uninterested.
6. Demona - Beyond uninterested.
7. Macbeth - Bemused
In 'Future Tense', when Goliath first comes into the city, the Talon-esqe soldiers blast a woman's cart and steps on a framed photo. correct me if i'm wrong, but was it intentionally implied that the girl was supposed to be a daughter of Chavez? taller woman had a similar outfit as Chavez.
Yes, it was implied. That was our intent anyway.
Watched "HUNTER'S MOON" and "THE JOURNEY" back-to-back recently and noticed that Maria Chavez was titled (on her door) as 'Chief of Detectives' and 'Chief of Police' (although I can't remember which was in which episode). Which is she?
Captain of Detectives for the 23rd precinct. "Chief of Police" is clearly an error. (One that I've never caught, by the way. Are you sure it said that?)
