He continued, “I was offered the showrunner job several times, and I can’t.

I’m doingGood Omens.It’s a full-time thing.
So for me, I wanted Bryan and Michael to succeed.
It was amazing.”
Gaiman did acknowledge problems with season 2’s development, but nothing too out of the ordinary.
“Sometimes people write scripts and the scripts don’t always work,” he said.
“And at that point, somebody else in the writers' room takes a crack at it.”
Omid Abtahi said the reports weren’t “entirely inaccurate.”
A few names come up in that regard: Orlando Jones and Chris Byrne.
Jones, playing Mr. Nancy, is more prominently involved with writing and producingAmerican Godsin season 2.
“He amazingly knows Laura really well,” Browning said of developing her character.
“He’s the person I go to when I need help with where Laura’s going.”
Jones “never heard of a show that didn’t have something going on with it.”
He didn’t seem concerned.
With season 2, he moved to 1st unit, directing the first and eighth episodes.
He just wants to remain in the background.
It needs to be in print that he’s the fing hero of this show.
He isAmerican Godsto me.
“Some of the sh they’re doing this season is amazing, unbelievable.
That was never the issue.”
The cast also didn’t ignore Alexander’s work on the show.
He got it together when we were running out of time.
Whittle said there wasn’t any kind of uncomfortable behavior he noticed that hasn’t been in other productions.
“We have a huge show.
There’s still a lot of love for Fuller and Green.
Abtahi pointed to his time working with the pair onHeroes.
“Personally, professionally, I get along with them really, really well,” he said.
They said, ‘You guys, the cast is the most important part of the show.
You guys will be fine.'”
“Only speaking for myself,” Browning said.
