This new interview with Adam Harrington on wetpaint.com mentions Gale quite a few times:
"Harrington portrays Ethan Conant, the father of Thomas Dekker’s character, Adam, and it becomes very clear early on that he’s being tormented by Gale Harold’s Charles Meade (who sets the main character’s mother on fire within the first few minutes of the show — such a sweetheart). Like Harrington says, this is not fun, shiny witchcraft — and you’re gonna love it!"
...
"That's a massive thing, to not know what happened to make you the character that you are.
I mean, Gale and I definitely figured out that our relationship in the past was probably somewhat better than it is now, and that whatever happened was bad. And when you know that, you've got animosity to play off of each other. As far as what happened, it actually kind of gives you a bit of freedom. In a way, it's like a bad memory, you want to stay away from it a bit because it's so bad. With Ethan, anyway, you just look for the nearest bottle."
