What happened next?
In early Fall 2006, because of low viewership, the producers were asked to wrap up the series in 13 episodes instead of 22 episodes as they’d originally planned. Sara Collin’s fate was revealed but most of the other series questions were left unanswered.
There has been talk that the series mysteries may be revisited on an episode of FOX’s Bones but it has not happened thus far.
Behind the Scenes
|
|
| • | FOX pulled the series after nine of the 13 episodes had aired. The network posted the remaining four episodes on their MySpace website. These could only be seen within the US. |
|
|
| • | In a surprising twist, lead character Graham Kelton (Harold) was shot several times in the seventh episode. When the series returned from a hiatus, Graham was dead. While it has been rumored that this was done because Gale was difficult, series executive producer Josh Berman maintains that it was all about the story. Berman says that Gale was a pleasure to work with and Graham’s death was done to make sure the audience felt that none of the characters were safe. |
