I'm not thrilled AJ is leaving or that Paget is possibly being cut back. But I will keep watching. Frankly, this is Hollywood. The producers and/or network are not doing this because they are evil bastards and want to ruin the show. They are businessmen and this is show business. Whether we agree with their reasons or understand them, money is always the bottom line and they may make choices that disappoint us, but they're their choices to make. These things happen all the time, on every show, and AJ and Paget are both professionals who know the score and know that actors can and often do lose their jobs with little to no warning, through no fault of their own.
Change does not have to mean the end of the show. Sometimes it's good. Often it's not. We'll have to see.
I don't begrudge anyone their protests or their bitterness. I signed the petition, too. But honestly, I don't take it personally.
