QUESTION: Peter, this is not a new issue, but it came up again with "Reunion." You know, you left the audience hanging. Doesn’t that have an impact on future shows like that you do, and isn’t there some way you can give them a payoff, even if it’s like "John Doe" on the Internet?

PETER LIGUORI: It is regrettable when stories end before it’s time. I don’t think that should stop us from being ambitious with serialized storytelling. I do wish that in every one of these situations there was a way to wrap up that story. "Reunion" was particularly cumbersome in terms of trying to provide an ending for the audience. How Jon was laying out the show to gap those additional 14, 15, 16 years was an incredibly complex path. There were a number of options and he didn’t make a definitive decision on which option he was going to go with as to who the killer was, and there was just no way to accelerate that time. We put these shows on and we’re going to continue to put these shows on every year with every good intention to end them, but eventually the audience votes.

QUESTION: (Inaudible) without knowing who the killer was?

PETER LIGUORI: (highlight to read) We discussed a number of options on that show, and the best guess was at that particular time that it was going to be Sam’s daughter that was actually the killer.
