Nick Santora Stands by His Comments
Nick Santora retaliates to one of the other members PBreakFans who pretty much called him lazy and a liar…
Tags: Nick Santora, nick-santora-sarah-wayne-callies, Sarah Wayne CalliesI do take exception with you saying the writers are lazy. That is a statement about my work ethic and the work ethic of my colleagues/friends and I do not appreciate that. The only thing that exceeds your statements ignorance is its inaccuracy. The writer/producers of PB are some of the hardest working, most diligent people in the industry We put in 15+ hour days every day. I’m sorry if you can’t understand the intricacies of having to deal with an actress playing a major character suddenly not being on your show — but to deal with that you need to come up with a story to explain the absence, find a way around barely seeing the actress (we saw her for a matter of seconds in the episode) and still have your characters care for someone that they aren’t even seeing on screen It is very difficult and we did a commendable job. I also take issue with the insinuation that I lied. I stated very clearly that fans would not see another actress running around the jungles of Panama playing the role of Dr. Tancredi. Did you see that? No. Know why? Because we will never show that. I didn’t lie. I don’t lie. I chose my words carefully when I posted the “jungle” quote because I knew people who didn’t read carefully would get it wrong later and call me out as a liar — and that is exactly what you did. PB fans were all over the net wanting to know about Sara, worried they’d see some other actress take her place. So I calmed their fears with the “jungle” quote - but I was careful with my words because I knew we’d have to use a body double (for a matter of mere seconds). As a friendly suggestion, in the future, in whatever endeavors you pursue, make sure you read things carefully and think things through before you question someone’s work ethic and integrity. If you don’t, you might possibly sound ill informed.
Hughes, I believe it was you who said you just got my book. I truly hope you enjoy it.
Everyone else, thanks for watching the show. Next week is INTENSE. And I stand by my earlier statement that Ep 6 is one of the best ever!

I agree that people should be able to leave their views of the story, the storyline, etc…whether negative or positive. I think it’s ridiculous that people are blaming actors/actresses and the writers/producers of the show for certain situations. I am as big of a PB fas as they come, but the truth of the matter is, is that hardly anyone knows the actual truth behind the whole SWC situation. I think people just need to wait it out, that’s the whole point and part of the fun in the show…riding the emotional ride. I’m glad that Nick wrote this in reply to being called a ‘liar’ and ‘lazy’…I believe we called that libel and slander in college. I understand that people are upset because they are connected to the character, and that’s fine…but no one is to blame in this situation, especially the writers and producers of the show…maybe the fact that these things just happen and no one is to blame is what is so frustrating for people. I just had to put my 2 cents in, because this has been frustrating for me to read things like this for weeks now.

When Santora chose to use the PB forums and fans to pimp his book, he took on the responsibility of being the online face of the show, like it or not. Not all fans are going to like all the storylines, not all fans are going to suck up to him and tell him what he wants to hear. Some of us have differing opinions and he needs to accept that or get off the forums.

Hi everyone! I’m a big PB fan, but I have to say that one of the main reason to watch is the love between Sarah and Michael!!! And I believe that I’m not the only one!!! I’ll keep watching the show until there is a hope to see Sarah!!! But if she dies I’ll stop watching! I hope that won’t happened :)

then stop watching….don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out….people who stop watching a show because a character is killed off, especially on a show like this where no main character is life maybe sans micheal or lincoln, you can’t expect everyone to live cause it wouldn’t be exciting otherwise….if u want romance go watch gays anatomy or some shit like that…this show isnt about romance its about action and adventure…deal

~*~MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR SOME PPL~*~
So it’s true? She’s really gone then? I’ve been holding on hope living on faith, wishing that it was all a hoax but if everything I’ve read is true than I’m devastated. I’m still clinging on to that last shred of hope that won’t let me believe it’s true. I won’t discontinue watching the show because I’m too invested in the show to quit now. I will however be devastated and watch it while crying on the inside.
But, I still have hope. Ever since I read that ep 6 would be the best ending yet, I’ve been down playing her probable death. I have myself believing that it’s MiSa related (not so he finds out she’s dead but so he finds her alive). Scared though that this is going to be crushed I’m trying not to get tooo hyped about the ep.
If questions are answered here than I have one not Sara-related. How many more season is the show going to be? I don’t see passed Sona. unless the Company is going to be destroyed as part of a new season.
I know there’s nothing we can do if she has decided to leave, so I’d just like to congratulate her on her new family and wish her all the best with everything. Truth be told, I would have done the exact same thin if I were in her position. Good luck Sarah and you’ll be truly missed.
