When you were working on the first two seasons of Gargs, how much control did you have over the show? Were your ideas ever rejected? Was it really a "team effort", or was it an "Greg is God! Bow down and worship him, Mortal scum!" Oberon-ish sort of thing?
I had a lot of control vis-a-vis Disney Management. The executives largely left me alone to do the stories I wanted to do. Only one story ever got rejected, and even I have to admit it was a pretty risky endeavor.
But keep in mind, I didn't produce the show alone. Frank Paur was my equal partner from day one. Also Dennis Woodyard and Bob Kline had producing duties as well. We all worked together.
I also like to think we were open to input from anyone on the staff. A lot of great ideas originated from other sources.
But I did get to tell the stories I wanted to tell. 66 of them at least.
And I was the one guy who had been on the project from the beginning of development through the end of post-production, so I had a more comprehensive point-of-view.
But no, no matter how much it might have pleased (I mean embarrassed) me, no one ever referred to me as "God".
