Hello. Thanks for your interest.

I was sort of hoping to stay off of any boards and just let the show air and speak for me, but a couple of friends contacted me and told me that the online rumors being spread concerning my departure from the show had become more and more ridiculous and they felt that a direct response was needed.

My question for you is this: Do you feel that your vision for RPM will be fulfilled by the new replacement EP, Judd Lynne (a former PR writer)?

Hi--thanks.

I know that my vision for RPM will not be fulfilled, simply because Disney never bothered to get my ideas for the ending or arrange a situation that would allow me to pass them along to the new Producer.

My hope is that Judd Lynn will watch the work that the entire cast and crew put into the first half of the season and then follow his own vision to take these characters and story to a fun and satisfying conclusion.

What was the first thought in your head when you saw a bit of the Go-onger footage?

Hello.

I will try to recreate the thoughts that sprang into my head when I first watched Go-Onger footage (on youtube)--

"Holy Shi#! I just promised Disney that I could turn this into a show that would appeal to an OLDER audience! I must be out of my f@#&ing mind! Holy Shi#! Wait, what's on the front of that zord? Are those motherf#*&ing eyeballs...!?"

You tried to take a show that had basically shot, stabbed and thrown off a building and with the touch of an angel tried to revive it. Unfortunately, the man above didn't see it that way.

I, myself, want to get into the business, but living in the middle of NY State, it's not that easy. Hopefully, one day I can work for an EP like you that can see the best in the show we are working on. Good luck in future affairs.

Hello, thanks so much for the kind words and I really appreciate your interest in the show.

I am no angel and you may change your mind when the actual episodes begin to air, so you should keep an open mind to the possibility that you may not like them and I would not hold that against you.

I graduated from Syracuse University, so I am familiar with your area of the country. If you are a writer, all you need is a pencil and a scrap of paper. A computer is better. And obviously, you've got one...

Cause that leaked promo - man, it really got me excited about Power Rangers again.

Hello--and thanks for the welcome.

I'm thrilled that people seem so excited about the show just based on that rough four minute long promo. I think I am "popular" mostly because people can genuinely sense how much I cared about the show and it's probably pretty obvious that I put my whole heart into it. But there's a decent chance that my popularity here will not last past the first three or four minutes of the RPM pilot, so you may want to adopt a bit more of a "wait and see" policy there.

I am still in friendly contact with a lot of people on the show but I have no involvement or influence--that was the way Disney wanted it.

I do not even have access to the episodes myself. When they air, I'll be sticking rabbit ears into the back of my TV at 5am to catch them like everybody else.

Hi and thanks for the warm welcome.

I watched tons and tons of footage, not just from Go-Onger but from past Sentai seasons as well, in an effort to try to figure out how to creatively use the footage.

I was also lucky that the writing staff on the show, Jackie Marchand and John Tellegen, had been doing this for a while and really knew what they were doing. They did an amazing job of schooling me and steering me away from all kinds of traps and mistakes that you have to watch out for when trying to use the footage.

There's so much me, as well as the rest fandom, would like to know what you have done to the first half of the season. I've heard a lot of great things.

To me, it sounds like you had a vision that would have made a promising impact to the world of Power Rangers. I'm pretty sure it would have restored the name of Power Rangers back to it's true meaning.

Thanks--I am very curious to see how people react to the first three episodes, which I think will give you a decent indication of the season's basic tone, style, and sensibility.
