From there, Herskovitz says hes enjoyed watching as the relationship has grown on both fans and actors alike.
As Herskovitz puts it, We want to believe in the possibility of growth in a person.
The last of Alyssa?
After taking the stage last week, Alyssas final scene involved an unexpected kiss with none other than Deacon.
And yes, he was just as surprised as the fans.
But according to Herskovitz, that kiss scene was first written a bit differently.
So it ended up being something much better, to me, which was this revelation of her character.
It made me just love her.
So I think it ended up being this incredibly warm, sweet moment.
