The 2010-2011 TV Season - It's All Change for The Event

Executive producer of NBC's The Event, Nick Wauters has promised he is planning changes for the show's second half of the first season. 


The show which is about a mysterious conspiracy 'event' which the audience and characters know nothing about it. (I don't sell it well but it is great) 


In an interview with E! Online, Nick said that he isn't worried about the 2 month hiatus the show is taking. "I was a little nervous at first, but we're going to do all we can to make sure people don't forget us and look forward to our return on February 28. This hiatus will allow us to return with two episodes back-to-back that night, and then our remaining ten episodes each week without interruptions or repeats." He added: "The truth is, on a show like this, even with the talented people we work with, it's very hard to keep delivering those 42-minute 'mini-movies' every week. I think it will be extremely helpful to our cast and crew and writers and it will allow viewers to experience the show without reruns."




The producer then went on to discuss the changes to show, when it returns. "We've clarified the goals of our characters," he said. "Their paths are starting to cross, so expect some great scenes and storylines. We've listened to our viewers and we've pulled back on the flashbacks - we will still have them when justified by the story. And we're loosening the structural rules we had at the beginning. As far as the story, we have several great storylines plotted. The second half of the season will have a greater sense of adventure. And with a little luck... maybe you'll even find out what 'the one Event' is!"


The Event is a great show, but does require a great deal of attention to understand what's going on, but that's alright because after the first episode I was hooked and wanted to know more. I agree that the flashbacks need to pulled back as they are sometimes confusing and used waaay to much in one episode. 


The Event currently airs on Channel 4, Fridays at 9PM.
