1 I feel the sudden urge to make a few things about the film and entertainment industry clear:It IS all a bit of a lottery. You can wait forever for a project to be greenlit only for it to fall apart in the last minute. There are actors out there who are far more multi faceted than DD who don’t have many projects a year lined up. This is a tough ‘n chaotic business. It looks to me as if DD looks for acting projects which he can also « produce » or at least is attached to from an early stage on.

2 Also: The the kind of Indie films DD used to do in the past 10-15 years aren’t being made anymore. At least not in those quantities. The market has shifted towards series. And yeah. He’s not a character actor you just put in stuff. I guess that he wants SOME control and the roles have to fit. So yeah. I don’t mean to sound wise-assy. But I just don’t get many of the comments I read hear that seem a bit ill-informed about the reality of this business.

3 Also: The dude is writing songs, performing songs, trying to learn to sing in order to do the latter. And writing a fourth book. Oh, and trying to get his book turned into a film. A story about fucking baseball which is not exactly the best thing to sell to foreign territories. I don’t get why someone would describe all this stuff as “not enough”. As far as Gillian is concerned: She’s a different kind of actor. She’s a fucking Meryl, y’know? Plus theater. About time she’s got a full plate.

Oh I know how this industry works. I’ve been working in it for 10 years, so believe me, I know this kind of stuff. I can tell you as well that what’s happening with David’s career isn’t a good sign at all. His projects are being cancelled one after another, he’s disappointing fans by not delivering what they’ve paid for, his social media persona is non-existent and he doesn’t interact with fans except during cons that he’s doing one after another to make money even if we know he doesn’t even like them, so all of that clearly indicates that his career is not in a good shape right now. He’s not going to produce a show. He wanted to self-produce BFD and this is not happening because he doesn’t have the finance to do so. So producing a show… That’s not how it works. He would have to be casted first and film quite a few episodes, and the show would have to have some success before he even gets into the writing room or the production field. 
Right now, the best thing that could happen to him would be a revival of Californication. That would work great for him…
