Would the show benefit from the 'unlimited budget' a comic strip offers?
In a way I hope that we never really have all the keys to the candy store because what we are forced to do is concentrate on character, emotion and storytelling and the very basics - and to bring out special effects as a garnish.
I know that if I was given all the special effects in the world, there would be a temptation - that I would have to fight every day - to do very big splashy visual things that get away from the heart of the series.
Even if we did have Industrial Light and Magic at our beck and call we would probably not use it.
