Y'know, I'm willing to cut the man some slack, mainly because I've yet to see a case where someones been able to successfully run two unrelated tv shows at once.
He'll also need time to actually write scripts, and at the same time hes got a family at home. I'm perfectly happy with him NOT rushing to get the episodes done or burning himself out to meet some deadline.
And going back to the actors, keep in mind that they're also likely to be needed for promotional tours. Especially Freeman.
