Ausiello at EW with an NCIS Q&A with the producer about the finale....

Question: You said that NCIS fans shouldn't be worried about Michael Weatherly leaving, so tell me straight out: Is Cote de Pablo leaving the show? -- Jillian
Ausiello: All exec producer Shane Brennan would tell me is that the season ends "on a cliff, not so much a hanger." Um, huh? "It's an episode that will compel people to come back for the first episode next season," he elaborates. "They will have to come back and watch what happens in the first episode next season because of what we do at the very end of this season. We've already worked out what that episode is. We've got a fantastic season opener that is set up in the finale. The thing about the opener for next season is, once again, your expectations of what you think you're going to see will be turned on their head with the season premiere. I'm a great believer in tying the audience in knots over the summer. It'll have people arguing whether it was a good thing or a bad thing and what the outcome will be." Still a little confused about the difference between a cliff and a hanger, but I'm admittedly not the brainiest Smurf in the village.
