I'll tall ya, the thing that made me most concerned in JE's interview was that he doesn't have a vision for where the show is going past the S2 finale. Yikes!

And I agree - if Neal can't change or won't, what's the point. I personally want him both ways - still a smartass conman and still with Peter. Also: seksitiems. So, him scamming other crooks helps me out there.
