Jen was fighting with A&E and the production crew for quite a long time. She feels entitled to creative control, something that's rarely awarded to actors and even rarer in shows with ensemble casts and multiple leads. But this is between JMo and A&E, not the actors. Where in the world did you get this from?! Jen has been a #1 proponent of A&E's vision - she has said so every time she's asked about what influence she might have on a storyline/scene. I have never heard of any drama between her and A&E, especially over "creative control." And fighting between her and the production crew? To spread all this is utterly ridiculous and completely unfounded. It started in season six. If you keep track of Eduardo's comments about the wedding dress and know a little bit about how television costume departments work, it's clear he's been hinting at the fact that Jen overstepped and the wedding dress was her idea primarily. Creative control sin't just about the storyline, it's also about things like costuming. But costuming is an area where actors will give more input many times, as that is something they phsically have to wear on their body. I suppose you think Elizabeth Mitchell overstepped as well, by deciding Ingrid wouldn't wear shoes much. It's not that simple. Jen's choices for the wedding dress were unfortunate for many, many reasons. And Eduardo let it clear in the language of crew that Jen had them backed into a corner. This is the last I'll be speaking on the matter since this isn't what this thread is about.
