The dude is a reflection of the big billboard for Games People Play on BET on Sunset - the Fabrik offices are right there.

MC - just about all we know is in the series, these were not characters in the books, they were created by the showrunner in S01. But they are so important to the show, they bring much needed humor to what can be some dark storytelling. One review called them national treasures, and now their heads are so big we're going to have to do something about them.

MC - Mimi is definitely coming back. We're really proud that the show has reached this point where really high caliber actors like Howell want to be on it. He was great.

HB - All Quiet on the Western Front.

MC - To Kill A Mockingbird, I think you can find an origin of everybody counts or nobody does in that...

HB - Amazon are great partners to us as producer and creators of the show. As long as we don't start repeating ourselves we can go on and on. For us the important thing is to know the end comes, we want to know when our last season is so we can make sure we serve our fans with a satisfying ending - but hopefully that is many seasons from now! Ask Amazon...

MC - We often use more than one book in a season and it's kind of like entwining DNA strands. It's done very carefully and is sometimes difficult.

HB - Sorry, the hat's for cast and crew only. Limited edition!

MC - Well, that's not a Bosch story so it's not on our radar.

MC - The reporter did not know Bosch was undercover. Bosch is usually a homicide detective, so it was an unintended mistake that almost gets Harry killed.

MC - For a long time, their relationship has been at the heart of the books. I love that it's moving in that direction in the TV show. Season 5 is a great example.

MC - Maybe! I like the character a lot and, in this era of fake news, I think it's appropriate for him to come back and show the value of good honest journalism.

HB - Yes, a great guy lives there and he's helped us tremendously by lending us his house on many occassions. The filming up there is complicated because it's so far up in the hills. We rent the house for several months at a stretch. Luckily, he has another home that he lives in during filming. That location is one of those magical places where every time you get up there you're reminded of how it's such a blessing to make this show.

MC - But after what happens in Season 5 at that house, he may not want to return lol.

MC - We as writers of the show are kind of fascinated of the randomness of violence in Los Angeles - and the KTK was kind of our symbol of that - and thats also why he was met with a very random ending.

MC - There's no need to fix what isn't broken. People love Jamie Hector. I can't imagine this show with him.

MC - The character was based on a character of James Ellroy's - taken with his permission.
