Makes sense, he's not really in the book that much until later anyway.
This bit is interesting:
The pilot is almost the entirety of the book, and then they use the book as the leaping off point for the rest of the season, which is cool. Its done entirely with Neil Gaimans blessing, so its fun to take this really well-read book and use it as a place just to start. Its like when youre in elementary school and your teacher makes you write a new story about one of the characters you like. Thats kind of what were doing. Youre like, I wish I could have seen more of Benvolio (in Romeo & Juliet), or I wish I could have followed the preacher in The Scarlet Letter. I want to know what he does when he goes home, and what his life is like. Its fun to explore these characters in a way outside of the book.
I'm getting more and more excited to see how this translates to the screen.

Oh god, that sounds SO good! I never did like the books that much; I thought the idea was much better than the execution.
Getting to new places with these characters makes me ten times more excited than I already was! -

Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.
