No not at all... it is rare for shows to make it as long as Once and Again... It was a pretty good run.
I swore I'd never do another hour show... until I read the first page of this script and I just hooked into Lily's character so much and the writing.
I have a strong belief in God..I find religion to be a very personal thing... I am also very spiritual.
He gets to say all of the things that everybody wishes they could say. The irreverence of the character, and he is gorgeous.
From a morality point of view, I wouldn't even go near, ... But in terms of making an interesting show, I'm sure they'll have to struggle with it.
I think Stacy is like a window into him, his vulnerability, his heart, because he does have one somewhere.
As for ABC you can't take it personally. We had three good years.
It's about, I did talk about my life in broad strokes and what home meant to me in order to really explore the subject of home and can you go back and what that means for people in that sense of community that we've lost.
For example, when my mother died, the people who showed up just to put an apron on to cook, people who really do the right thing, so to speak, as my momma would always say to show that they care, a sense of community that we've lost so much in our country.

Oh, definitely and I talk about all the things that I really needed to make me happy at that point in time were outside of Mississippi, and now all the things that I need to make me happy are back there.
With so much focus on New Orleans, the important thing to remember is the dire straits in Mississippi, ... We wanted to show how much help we need and how people can help.
