Okay...I have two questions, but being as they are not on the same topic...you'll get the other question separately. First...it's about the Goliath/Elisa relationship. Throughout the entire series (which I was completely obsessed with before it was cancelled), you could pretty much tell they had something going on (especially when Elisa became a gargoyle). Had the series not been cancelled, would they have acknowledged their feelings for each other and maybe have done something about it? I don't think that violates any of your rules, especially since it wouldn't have any point to suggest an idea because the show is cancelled, but if it does, don't think it does because it isn't. I hope you can answer it! Thanks! :)
Greg responds...
You're last sentence gave me a headache.
And I do want to note that the fact that the series curently isn't in production, doesn't preclude my need for protection from "original ideas" about the show. Because someday, in some form or another, I hope to bring the thing back.
Anyway, on to your question. I feel that Elisa's kiss in HUNTER'S MOON, PART THREE was an acknowledgement of her feelings for Goliath. And I feel Goliath has, on a few occasions, attempted to acknowledge his feelings for her, but that she always stopped him. So I don't think this is a secret anymore.
As for future stories, yes, of course the relationship would have progressed at the same SLOW steady pace.

Dear Greg,
Who was it that named Goliath, and when was he given a name?
Greg responds...
Are you asking about within the world of the show or in our Disney offices?
If the former, I think the answer to that is Prince Malcolm around 971 A.D.
If the latter, I think I named Goliath in 1992 or '93. But I'm not sure.

Hi! i'm a first time writer and although i searched the archives, i couldn't find this question (hard to believe, i know)
Did you ever plan a romantic reunion between Goliath and Demona? even for a night?
Greg responds...
No.

Hi. You did a great job on the gargoyles and I'm sorry it had to be canceled. Anyway my question is where do I find facts about the gargoyles? I mean like Height, Weight,Age, that sort of thing. I found it some places but its always different. For example one place Goliath was 35 another place he was 20. As the creator I thought I'd ask you. Thank you for your time
Greg responds...
Ages I've got. Height and weight, no, sorry. Although you can guestimate height as well as I can by watching the show.
I don't know where you got either 35 or 20 for Goliath's age. In 1996, Goliath was 1058. Biologically he was about 29.

Future Tense is my favorite episode. The first time I saw it, I didn't had time to think of what just happened, something else always arrived! It's great! In the scene where Goliath appeared from cyber-space with Elisa, Goliath said: "Demona... Angela... Brooklyn..." I was suprised that Goliath said Demona! He said her name first!
Greg responds...
Yup.
There's a part of Goliath that will always love Demona. And when he saw her fighting for their daughter on the side of the angels for a change, the old feelings must have welled up. Not enough to make him forget Elisa, but enough so that her "death" hurt.

Hmm... I should have perhaps placed this question within the same post as the previous one...
Will Samson have a mate and/or children in 2158? Moreover will his attitude towards parentage be human-like (like his mother) or will he follow the older gargoyles ideas on the subject?
Greg responds...
Samson will have a fairly obvious romantic interest. Originally, I definitely wanted him to have kids and a dead mate, but now I'm hemming and hawing. Strangely, I don't want him to be too much like Goliath. And I'm afraid the absent wife and kids might push him to far in that direction.
As for his attitude, I think that inevitably it'll be an amalgam of both views. Biological progeny will matter to him somewhat. But hatchlings being raised communally by the clan will still be very important.

Good evening, Greg. My question is something I know you've skirted before, but the question wasn't very specific. Okay, question is:
In The Green (think that's the name), Jackal's imagining the things he's going to do to the Aztec Clan and the Tourists. One of those things is re-carving Goliath's face to resemble Jackal's. If Jackal had actually done that, would Goliath wake up looking like Jackal? Wake up with his own face? Not wake up at all?
Hopefully this specific question isn't a repeat...
Greg responds...
He probably would not have woken up. It probably would have killed him.

Okay, I just have a couple of questions...
1) In "Mark Of The Panther" what sort of things were going through Goliath's mind after his discussion with Diane and as he was approaching Angela?
You had commented that what Diane said made him realize some things, but what other things would he have thought about on that? Would he and Angela have discussed their problem?
2) In, "Eye Of The Storm" what were the reasons for having Goliath done the Eye of Odin? Was he ever to be a sorceror? If not, why have him use the Eye? What was the significance of that episode?
Well... I think that's it for now. Chow!!
Greg responds...
1. That Angela was his daughter by anyone's definition, including his own. In the interest of trying to make her see the difference between gargoyle and human definitions of parenthood, he had neglected to be any kind of father. A lot of this came out of paranoia involving Demona. If Angela gave him special status as her biological father, she might also grant Demona special status too. Which in fact, she did. Though I don't think it harmed anyone.
2. Sorry, but questions on separate topics must be posted separately.

1.did goliath and co ever tell macbeth or demona of what happened on avalon and if so how did they react?
Greg responds...
My guess is that no one filled Macbeth in. If they had, then Macbeth would have reacted differently to Arthur in "Pendragon". It's possible that Angela told Demona about it during her "Reckoning" incarceration. But then again, maybe she didn't. I'm not sure that Angela would feel any value would come out of bringing that up.
Airwalker writes...
Can you please give us some small tidbit of information on Demona's two great loves?
Greg responds...
Not counting Goliath?
