Hey flutie, what struck me about Sera stuff was that James P. Stuart was indicating that even as early as his first bibbing line there was apparently some transition stuff going on, which I believe is WAY earlier than anything Jeremy or Sera publicly admitted, right? Which really means that the abrupt wrap up of Eve and Dick probably had MUCH less to do with Sera's deficiencies as a show-runner than Jeremy's desire to wrap those up so he could start with a clean slate. Just a thought-Jeanette
I hope you don't mind me publishing this, because I think it's important information for that portion of the fandom who still thinks Sera Gamble was a terrible showrunner.
The truth is, I guess we don't really know what Gamble's like on her own. She had Kripke still breathing down her neck for the first half of season 6. And then apparently we find out that Carver was pushing to wrap up the Leviathan stuff as early as his first line about "bibbing" -- which, by the way, occured in "Slash Fiction", which is, the sixth episode of the season. Yikes.
I'd like to see what Sera could do with a show where she was truly given free reign to do whatever she liked. Because even with all the cooks in the kitchen through seasons 6 and 7, you can see how brilliantly ambitious her ideas were, how she wasn't afraid to take risks with the story or its characters. Who knows, maybe on her new show.
