This is one of those shows in which everyone engaged in it is so delighted to be doing it – and I know that I speak for the trio as well as everyone else – and I think that sums it up pretty well. When you have lightning in a bottle in this fashion, and then there is this magnetizing force of amazing skill who say, "Wow, that looks like fun. ", then you have a recipe for success. I would be thrilled to be a part of something like that. I pray that it blesses it with a long and fruitful life.
