MONDO EXTRAS

TWoP: So, can you reveal any of those "big" things that are going on?

PK: I don't know when this article will run, but in the in the premiere:
-- Somebody will get arrested for the suspected murder of my father, Dutch George.
-- Two characters who should not be touching lips are found kissing.
-- Somebody gets punched in the face.
-- During an argument between two spouses, somebody dies.
Obviously, there's other things I cannot tell you. The show operates on surprise and suspense. It is a soap, albeit a smart and good one.

TWoP: I think some people are resistant to that term, and I really like that you guys embrace it. Ultimately, it sounds like you feel this change was a good one.

PK: It was something that I was resistant to at the beginning, because I thought it was mutually exclusive, that it had to be one thing or the other -- that if we went down that road we could never achieve what I thought we could as far as being artistic. But I think we do achieve both things now, and it works.
