The big production question I have if this will continue with multiple seasons is whether each season will be roughly a year or so. With child actors you don’t want them to outgrow their character age (e.g. Walt on Lost).
That is a really great point Neil! But I think that is the overall question… they may be back but for how long? So if we receive more seasons do we assume the same characters continue from season to season?
They pitched the final scene, episode to ABC so let’s hope that they had that in mind. Who’s to say that Jacob even is around past this season he appeared suddenly could he disappear just as suddenly?
Notes: Jacob is a biblical name, meaning “to follow, to be behind” but also “to supplant, circumvent, assail, overreach”. Jacob was renamed “Israel”, meaning “Triumphant with God”, “who prevails with God”.
Jacob dies by drowning.
Jacob ‘returns’ 32 years after his death.
Interesting prevail or be triumphant over what? There is more to Jacob then meets the eye and maybe he is the focal point for all the returned.
