I’m sure some authors want to cling to what they’ve written, but the books are the books. Going into it, I knew it was going to be collaborative and I knew we were going to be changing things.
Guillermo gave me a huge opportunity to do this, and it’s been fantastic. But returning to this world that we created and playing it out for a new medium, I’ve learned a ton from Carlton. That really wouldn’t interest me so much. HOGAN: I couldn’t imagine going back and doing it the same way we did it in the books. Three seasons into the show now, have you started to have conversations about just how much longer it might go and when your endpoint might be? I think this season is the best of the three seasons, and I think that’s really due, in large part, to the fact that we were able to condense our storytelling into 10 hours. It’s been a true joy to do the show with FX. He really has always embraced what’s best for the show, and I think he believes what’s best for the show is going to make the best show, which is what’s ultimately best for FX. John Landgraf is as enlightened as they come. You know, working for FX is fantastic because they really put the creator first. The season is about the battle for New York, so 10 episodes felt like the exact right length to tell that story. It just felt like, to make the story telling really kinetic and fast-paced, it was a way to tell this season’s story. Why is that?ĬARLTON CUSE: It’s something we asked for. Some people might think going from 13 episodes to 10 episodes is a disadvantage, but you’ve talked about how you see it as an advantage. It seems like, with every episode, something really dramatic and incredible happens, which is the way it’s supposed to go, but with this season, especially, it’s just racing headlong to the final episode of the season. We’ve gone down from 13 episodes to 10, and I feel like everything is a little more elevated.
The threat is growing more dangerous, every day, so there’s a real impetus to try to do whatever they can do to try to stop this thing as soon as possible, before it overwhelms them. So this season, you see that everything is a little more elevated. The interesting thing about our creatures is that, as they exist longer, they grow and they mature and they’re able to coordinate, so it steps up the threat to our heroes. CHUCK HOGAN: As we come into Season 3, we jump ahead in time a little bit.
