he also wrote the best Freddy Kruger movie... Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors!
and reading that document... HOLY COW. They were getting scripts in 8 WEEKS before shooting? Do you guys have any idea how insane that is in the writing world? Having written on both cable and network TV, I don't think I've EVER gotten a script to the Network earlier then a week before prep... which is usually a week or so before shooting. That's super insane.
and they're claiming they never held tone meetings on ANY script? No way. No way I believe that. That said, if they were having 5 HOUR tone meetings on every script, that's ludicrous as well.
You probably know this already, but some of the scripts for the original Star Trek TV series were even worse than that. It's amazing they even got some of their shows on the air in time....
