In the beginning, I was planning to end 'Dragon Ball' when all seven Dragon Balls had been collected.
The initial plan for Rooster Teeth is really different from the initial plan for the group, because we started as a group that was making one show: 'Red vs. Blue.'
When I started 'Case Histories,' the characters were all going to Antarctica on a cruise. The first part was called 'Embarkation.' It was supposed to be about everyone preparing to embark on the cruise, but it mushroomed into an entire book.
When we first started the company, I didn't have any thoughts of franchising. We just had company-owned stores.
Certainly from the rehearsal process with Elizabeth I think it was very clear. Well let me start again. We were initially supposed to be more combative.
Most of us start out with a positive attitude and a plan to do our best.
I initially went into 'Coronation Street' for three months. If they had said back then, 'Do you want to do it for six years?' I probably would have said, 'I don't think so.'
We had a bunch of 'we's - a fitness concept, a restaurant concept. The first business plan we had included all of them.
I think initially we wanted to use the first letter of the character's name. We thought S was perfect.
The way we started was, Alison [McGhee] said, 'Tall girl, short girl.' We had no plans beyond that.
I wanted to only do one season when I came onto 'Vampire Diaries' because I thought there was only so much to explore.
