I can’t even believe he had time to promote Territories during all of this. We appreciate everything he has done for this. The moment the show went down set up, we didn’t have much time, we had to go and we couldn’t accommodate his schedule or anything, we had to do it and deliver it to the network. longer or if it came a little later and there was this little window where it would have been raining s available, we probably would. Maybe in the future there’s an opportunity, mighty ly, if we do season two, to have him on the show. We would love to have him on the show, that would be amazing.
