It’s been a whirlwind start to the gig. We started the first day by getting three new drafts of Eps 101 - 103, I hadn’t ever read a version of 102 or 103 so there was a lot to catch up on. Speed reading and note taking until lunch, then we met in the room until evening. This show takes place in such a huge world, I love the rabbit-hole discussions that come out as a result - but at the same time its jarring, coming off a previous show that was not only based on a true story, it needed to be grounded in every detail from police procedures to timelines. That show was all about finding as much drama and surprise in between the cracks of a very well documented true story. This is the diametric opposite, it’s about restricting the big action and world-learning just enough to fit in a ton of original and surprising character arcs. I think my series documents for the show will end up being very different… To return to this thought-line shortly.
