Wow, very busy guy, Mr Green. Keeps rolling out new projects. Bravo. But do you have any further word on his involvement with LOCI, AL? Would be a terrible shame if he moved on. He and Chernuchin are just what S8 needs, I think.

"If you're a writer who's interested in more authority and actually being in control of your material, you're much better off in television." On a film set, a writer is often a fifth wheel, while on a TV set, the writer is an integral element to the process, constantly referred and sometimes deferred to for interpretations of lines, meanings and intent. Meanwhile, most TV shows' directors are migrants, and the rest of the cast and crew are long-timers who have an insiders feel for the material -- while on film sets the director is king and the story is set..."
