“It’s an admirable show of respect for Neighbors, and I was delighted when they said yes. It was wrong to end the show with them. Jason stated that their scene was written in total secrecy, explaining that “not even the script department knew it was taking place!”
He said, “I was there the day of filming. It was a very moving and memorable experience that will stay with me long after the series wraps in August.” It was an honor to be a part of it.
