Dec. 10th, 2008 10:30 pmOh my GOD, Joe Mallozzi. (Warning -- reading this may have you throwing up a little, in your mouth.)
You know, I used to get SO JEALOUS thinking about the writers on Buffy, and the fun they had in the writers room (while under massive loads of stress, of course), talking about eps and story arcs and writing stuff on white boards like "Astronauts Vs. Cave Men: Who Would Win? Discuss." I LOVED Buffy, but god, I wanted to work on it, and I was all swoony over Jane Espenson & Douglas Petrie & co. I wanted to be their friend! and make art with them! they were (are) so cool and brilliant!
I do not feel this way about the writers on SGA, though I have great affection for some of their work. I have no desire to go be in that room, if Joe Mallozzi's blog entry is indicative of how they discussed character and plot development. Discussing if John Sheppard should be Teyla's baby daddy??? IN THOSE WORDS?
Gag me with a spoon, people.
