I thought they might be.

[Carter1994]

Not quite, jelgate... we've got a two word title now (well, technically the second word is just "the", but still). It would be nice to know if there's a method to their madness...

[Eternal Density]

JM wanted two-word titles for season 2, etc, but it didn't catch on. That's a pity since I too have come up with titles for all of season 10 (none of which are sensible).
FYI Smallville's stayed with one-word titles for 9 seasons so far as I know, but I only know a fraction of them since they don't show up in the episodes and I don't always bother reading them. Also FYI I'm not subscribed to any threads, I'm fine with clicking on them myself.

Some behind the scenes news...

Michelle writes: “Wait, if Paul is an exec producer this year, does that mean you are, too? I thought you were a bonded pair!”

Answer: Yes, we are both Executive Producers for SGU’s second season.

Both Paul Mullie and Joe Mallozzi were Consulting Producers in the 1st season.

Whats the difference between the two

[PG15]

As with all of life's little questions, Joe's blog offer the answer:

Maddog1995 writes: “According to IMDB, you’re listed as a consulting producer. What are the differences between , executive, consulting and just plain old producer?”

Answer: I’ve already answered the producer question. This year, as consulting producers, Paul and I are in the offices reading scripts and outlines, spinning stories, watching cuts, etc. However, unlike previous years, we are not producing our own episodes (overseeing prep, dealing with the network, doing out own cuts, etc.).

Update!

Back at the office today where we took a stroll over to the Art Department to see what Production Designer James Robbins has in store for SGU’s second season: airlocks, sealing corridors, damaged sections, ships, aliens, and that secret place I can’t tell you about under penalty of death. Then, after lunch, we finally got around to giving notes on those scripts. First up was the second season premiere in which the events of Incursion I and II come to an explosive conclusion. Chock full of great character moments, Paul’s first draft is tight and well-written. It took us all of twenty minutes to go through it. Since we already gave Rob notes on episode two before the hiatus, we moved on to episode three, my script. It’s no secret that this one was – well, a ***** to write but the big question was “Had those weeks agonizing over the script paid off?”. Well, let me put it this way: By the time they were done giving notes, it was so late that we decided to call it a day. In fact, I probably would have received even more notes had Carl not actually willed himself to pass out in order to escape the marathon session.

The day also brought a title change from The Awakening to the Brad Wright-inspired Awakenings. Better and, more importantly, in keeping with that one-world title we’ve got going. So it breaks down like this:

I: I———–

II: A——–

III: Awakenings

IV: P——-

V: C———

Insert Episode 3 Darth Vader shot: "NOOOooOOo!"

I guess we've lost the joke that, for all the people that want characters airlocked, there were no accessible airlocks to put them in...

Rush'll get booted then.

So if BW and RCC get bored of SGU will M&M become showrunners once again? Deja'vu anyone? Heck, it worked well for Atlantis why not for SGU.

I don't see them getting bored anytime soon.

[Coronach]

I don't see them getting bored anytime soon.

Me either. They admitted that all the changes have caused them to have more fun than they've had in a long time. Whereas with SGA, it was understandable that they got tired out considering it was essentially the same format that SG-1 had used.

I am very happy for M&M being stepped up to Executive Producers. They did a great job with Atlantis, and kept people interested in that show and even brought it to the next level. I am speculating great things for Season 2. M&M also wrote a lot of eps in the 2nd half of Season one, so also have high hopes for that as well.

Edit M&M have 5 eps for the 2nd half. If we get quality eps like The Last Man or Remnants, then I will be very happy.

[jelgate]

But M&M wrote Enemy at the Gate. Thats enough reason to be scarad
