EP say "The End" almost had aliens in it - MarylikesGrimm - 04-05-2017

Now creators and executive producers Greenwalt and Kouf finally tell all, from characters that took off in ways they weren't expecting to that big three-episode finale that, if things had worked out a little differently, might just have involved aliens.

When did you know how you wanted to end the series?

JK: Six weeks before (laughs).

DG: If that (laughs) ... We knew there was going to be big stuff and we began to figure out the stick and the staff and all that kind of stuff, but we had a lot of different versions, Including one with aliens.

Aliens? Really?

DG: We had a lot of different versions of what we were going to do there at the end.

It would have been interesting to see the alien one. Was that something you guys were seriously considering?

DG: Well, we actually pitched it at one point, but we were so busy doing other things, it wasn't really fully formed. Wouldn't you say, Jim?

I am honestly glad that they didn't go with this idea.
It would have been all kinds of awful if they had made this 'jump'. LOL

Quote:And we posed this question a few times, "Would you go back to what you were before if you could?" And the answer was resoundingly, "No," even though there's a lot of pain and suffering, but there was a lot of growth that happened with all of those moves. And she had found a purpose in herself that eclipsed her relationship with him. A lot of people thought they were going to get back together.

This is another reason why I wrote Barrigan's Wake. Sure, the principal characters had "grown" from the pain and suffering, but what about all the collateral damage, such as the innocent neighbors who were slaughtered that same night? G&K were either too busy barreling ahead with new stories to acknowledge that nasty little loose end, or they just didn't care.
