i figured since i was singled out to everyone by "Jim R." earlier i'd write something about me... also cuz i like to talk about myself.:)
i don't know Greg personally but i wish i did. i ask Greg so many questions because i'm a big fan and i want to know everything about "Gargoyles" that Greg is willing (or able) to share with us. i've watched garg. since it first came on and i've come up with a lot of questions and when i came across this website i started asking them. i just really love this show! if i had one wish i'd wish for world peace, but if i had two wishes i'd wish that "Gargoyles" had its own television station and played nonstop!! to show how much a fan i am, those last two sentences instantly reminded me of Puck's "does this look like Alladin's lamp" line!!!!
anyway, so as not to clutter up this page with anymore non-garg stuff if you want to email me you can at ewoks11@hotmail.com. i'd love hearing from other fans esspecially since none of my friends were ever really into gargoyles.
and as for all my really great questions: "I can't help it if you can't keep up with Greg and me!". joke. see "Turf".
oh, and thanks for comparing me to Mr. Spock!
Greg responds...
matt,
Your questions are always welcome. Thanks for being a fan.
And, hey, if you want to meet me, come to the Gathering convention this June in Los Angeles. I'll be there.

i herd from someone that there was some consideration for geting the show back on is that true?
Greg responds...
There is no official plan for that at this time. But I have hopes, and I am pursuing those hopes on at least three fronts. One way everyone can help is by attending (or supporting) the annual gargoyles convention: THE GATHERING. This year's convention is in Los Angeles. We have over twenty-five guests scheduled to appear from the cast and crew of the show, including Star Trek's Marina Sirtis (the voice of Demona) as well as the voice actors who portrayed Brooklyn, Owen, Broadway, Lexington, Hudson and Angela, among others. We also have many members of the crew coming. Artists, directors, producers, composer, etc. And we're not done recruiting guests. You really don't want to miss this.
And if our attendance goal of 500 is reached, we'll be bringing current Disney execs to the con, to give them a sense of JUST WHAT they're missing, by not putting Gargoyles back on the air.

Hey Greg,
I'm planning to go to The Gathering 2001 in L.A. It's in my home town and I'm really happy to see The Gathering finally coming my way! I was just wondering if your going to be there and what day your thinking about showing up, I would love very much to talk with you and tell you how much the Gargoyles means to me. A head of time I wish to thank you for making such a good cartoon---I was there in it's prime years and I'm still here for it in the end of it's prime years.
Greg responds...
I'll definitely be there. As will at least twenty plus other guests. Check out the website at:
http://gathering.gargoyles-fans.org/
and click on the Guests page for more info.
Among the scheduled guests, we have Thom "Lexington" Adcox, Edward "Hudson" Asner, Brigitte "Angela" Bako and MARINA "Demona" SIRTIS.
Plus twenty or so people from the crew. And we're not done gathering guests yet either.
As for which days I'll be there, well, EVERYDAY. AND ALL DAY AND NIGHT, pretty much. I have a great time at these things. And I love meeting the fans. So Jade, sign up now. And I'll see you there.
JADE writes...
Can you tell us any info on what the people your talking to are saying about Gargoyles coming back on, or is it Top Secert?
Greg responds...
Most talking hasn't begun about bringing the show back. The June convention in L.A. is my targeted "attack" point. I'm working with various talented artists and individuals on multiple fronts to prep for that. But I need the fans to show up in force of numbers to prove my points.

Hey Greg, (it's me again)
Do you have any idea of were The Gathering of 2001 will be held at in L.A.? (West, North, etc.)
Greg responds...
It'll be in Universal City, near North Hollywood at the Universal Sheraton, on the same property as Universal Studios and Universal CityWalk.
For details, check out the G2001 website:

Dear Greg,
This is my first time writng to you, so first I would just like to say how much I really enjoy your work on the Gargolyes. (Especially the Elisa/Goliath reltionship. It's a lot of the reason why I watch the show). I wish I could go to the Gathering in 2001, but I'm only 16, and I live in Alabama, and I don't think I could convince my 'rents to let me go all the way across the country just for some "cartoon thing" as my daddy calls my love of the Garg's. Now for my question. How many people, on average, would you say come to the Gatherings?
Greg responds...
I'd say it's hard to pick an "average" number since the con has grown slow but steady every year.
And I'm hoping that this year we'll have a MAJOR growth spurt. Our goal is a minimum of 500 people. In the past, we started just below 100 and climbed above that number.
I understand your predicament, and I know this is presumptuous of me, but have you tried suggesting to your 'rents that they make a family vacation to L.A. in June. The Gathering can be but one of many attractions you visit. The convention is being held twenty yards from Universal Studios and Universal Citywalk. Daytrips to Disneyland and/or Magic Mountain or any other Southern California attraction you can name are easily accomplished. Can't hurt to ask? (Or if it can, ignore me.) :)
Phil writes...
Demonskrye asked about the Buzz Lightyear episodes you wrote. I really like the show (not just your episodes, but the whole series). It ranks right up there with the Gummi Bears just behind Gargoyles.
I've notice that, except for Gargoyles, all my favorite Disney cartoons have Tad Stones' name in the credits. And we've seen from your memos that he had a hand in the development of Gargoyles, too.
What are the chances of getting Tad to come to the Gathering? Or better yet, the chances of him working on the show if/when it comes back? Just a thought.
Greg responds...
Chances are good for the former, probably slim for the latter.
Tad and I are currently developing another series together for Disney. Too soon to talk about, but hopefully we can make an announcement soon.

Hey Greg!
So that's cool that your still trying to get the Gargoyles back, I really miss 'em, alot of people do. I know about ten people at school that really want 'em back. So theres about ten fans plus millions on the web. I really wish there was something I could do, I wrote Buena Vista tons of times, but from my point of view that's the only thing I could do. Do you have any ideas that might help get the word out people still miss Gargoyles?
Greg responds...
Organize a big group of all ten of your friends and their parents and siblings etc to come to Los Angeles next June for the GATHERING 2001. I'm not kidding. The best way you can help me get the show back on the air is to make attendance at this year's gathering HUGE!

Ishimura Clan questions:
1. After seeing the memo recently posted on naming schemes used in the series, I was wondering if any specific pattern was used with the Ishimura clan?
2. I don't know how involved you were with the individual names of the Ishimura clan, but what does Kai's name mean? Sora and Yama have only one kanji character associated with their names (yama: "mountain, hill, knoll," sora: "sky, heavens, air"), but there are over 40 kanji characters that are pronounced "KAI".
Greg responds...
1. I believe so. Yama means mountain, and I vaguely recall that the other names Sora and Kai meant something too. Can't remember what anymore, though. Sorry.
2. Oh. So Sora means sky. That just leaves Kai. Might it mean "Leader"? I just can't remember. But you can ask Story Editor Gary Sperling at the 2001 Gathering in Los Angeles this June.
