Er, I just realized my Stargate question is irrelevant because you DON'T have it at Warner Bros; I must've misread the archives when I was inspired to write that question.
Whoops. Sorry about that.
Though, I do have a question. Petros Xanatos, besides being one of the few people to truly dominate the Xanatos Tag, also takes what happens to his son with ALARMING calmness. While I don't want to ask why (since that would, quite rightfully, give me a "No comment" response), I do want to ask: in whatever terms you'd be comfortable with, how broad is Petros's knowledge of the supernatural or magical (prior to or without counting "Vows" or "The Gathering")?
Greg responds...
Pretty much zero.

I was browsing the archives a little and saw you never put up your Stargate development because, at the time, you weren't at Warner Brothers.
I'm not huge into Stargate...but I am a fan of your work (obviously) and just in case someone out there wanted to see it, I thought I'd ask: Since you're now at Warner Brothers, would you be able to put your Stargate animated series development sometime when not swamped with making delicious DC cartoons?
Greg responds...
Stargate was MGM, not Warner Bros...

As a big Stargate fan, I've been curious for some time...what was the premise of your proposed "Stargate: The Hunted" series? What was the overall plot, who were the main characters, who would the villians have been? I understand if it's been too long or you simply don't feel like looking it up, but should you choose to respond, I would be very grateful.
Greg responds...
I'm not opposed to putting it up. I can't see the harm at this point. But I don't have it here at Warner Bros.

Stargate: The Hunted?
You mean we could have had a GOOD animated Stargate show? I don't suppose you could give us a taste of what we could have had? Would have involved alien races and chracters made familiar on Stargate SG1? Are you allowed to divulge any details about it?
Greg responds...
I'd like to think it would have been a GOOD animated Stargate show.
The cast of SG-1 (i.e. Teal'c, Samantha Carter, Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neil & General Hammond) would have appeared in the pilot, hopefully with the actors from the series doing the voices. An outline was written for that pilot that everyone seemed to love. There were long term plans. New Go'auld. An ancient. Though it was all approved at the time by the executive producers (Brad Wright, Jonathan Glassner, Richard Dean Anderson), the live-action series has since gone in directions that have made that old "The Hunted" development impossible to fit into the current continuity. Oh, well.

What is Stargate the hunted? Were you involved in the show's creation?
Greg responds...
"Stargate: The Hunted" was an animated spin-off series that I developed for MGM Animation back in the late 90s. We were about to head into pre-production -- and I even took a trip up to Vancouver to meet with the live-action show's Executive Producers (including Richard Dean Anderson) -- when MGM's animation division imploded.
The show never got made. I attempted for years to get people interested in the property. It seemed like a natural, what with how well the live-action version was doing. But no one would bite.
Then one day I found out that DIC had made a deal to produce their own Stargate animated series. Their show was practically on the air before I even heard about it. I've never seen it. (Why torture myself?) They're development, I'm sure, has nothing to do with mine -- other than, I'd imagine, elements that are naturally common to both versions because of the source material.
