The one difference in the approach in this season was we wanted to deliver a true cliffhanger.
Itll probably get wrapped up in the first episode.
And then well get into a series of self-contained story lines after that.
Tell me about that.
And I hope it was successful.
It was a nice little moment for everybody and the gifts were hopefully indicative of who they are.
So Im glad it came through.
Moving on to Jamie Lee Curtis character, Dr. Ryan.
Ive enjoyed her arc, are we in for more?
We started playing around with this mysterious background of her ex-husband, from the get go in season 9.
Well have to see where it takes us and how it unfolds.
And I think that really came through in their relationship and how they played off each other.
I think we were really lucky to have her.
Next: Duckys future
On to the cliffhanger.
Next season, are we going to pick up not too far after that?
Yeah, I think so.
Ive been playing with this idea of picking up a few hours after we left off.
Now, lets talk about Ducky.
But tell me what hes facing next season.
Well, thatll give you a sense about how long weve been talking about this.
Im not going to play games with people.
And well play that throughout the season.
So, well have to see where that picks up with them in the season opener.
