Spartan Girl April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 Well, it's good that it's ending, but it's a year too late if you ask me. We could have ended last year with Conrad in jail, David Clarke still dead but cleared, Victioria in the looney bin, and Emily victorious, but nooooo.... Thanks for at least one good season, the great performances by Emily Van camp, Nolan, and all the pretty boys. Just wish the show could have stayed good. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6694-revenge-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-1091913

GaT May 11, 2015 Share May 11, 2015 TVLine finale post-mortem interviews with Madeleine Stowe and producer Sunil Nayar. They answer some questions brought up by the finale. "There was a scenario being heavily discussed where David Clarke was, perhaps, a mastermind — that he’d actually brought these people in and was not a good guy. This was potentially going to be a revelation to Emily that would completely rock her. Victoria was not quite the monster you thought she was, but you so believed in this girl’s credibility and how much she loved her father. They were going back and forth about that, but I believe ABC felt it would have been a betrayal of their audience to go down that road."

Glade May 12, 2015 Share May 12, 2015 “It was scheduling,” says Nayar about why mama Clarke never returned, “Jennifer Jason Leigh was shooting Quentin Tarantino’s new movie The Hateful Eight, but we did look into her availability. Amanda’s mother was a huge part of the story. Amanda would have learned a massive amount of truth, and there could have been resolutions with David,” says Nayar. Well, that's too bad; instead of watching Margeww and Victoria flip-flop for episodes on end, we may have gotten some follow-through on that lingering plotline. When she wasn't available, though, I think at least a throw-away line could have been written in about how she od'd on painkillers or something. http://deadline.com/2015/05/revenge-series-finale-sunil-nayar-interview-emily-vancamp-1201424514/ Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/6694-revenge-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-1135583
