"The Event star Jason Ritter has defended NBC&amp;#039;s decision to take the show off the air for three months. The tenth episode, &amp;#039;Everything Will Change&amp;#039;, aired last night in the US. The series will return on February 28 as part of a relaunch. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a necessary break, I feel, in order for... NBC to be able to air the final 12 [episodes] in a row,&amp;quot; Ritter told Blastr. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a longer wait, but the payoff will be all the better for it.&amp;quot; The actor insisted that the series would &amp;quot;really give the audience what they want&amp;quot; following the relaunch. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s something that [NBC] thought a lot about, and they know that it&amp;#039;s a dangerous time for shows like this,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;[But] once we start back up, there&amp;#039;s no stopping us until the very end. So that&amp;#039;s an exciting thing.&amp;quot; Ritter also claimed that he had grown to trust the show&amp;#039;s writing team throughout the first season. &amp;quot;I know that they have a plan... and so the interesting thing for me has been to just trust that.&amp;quot; he revealed. &amp;quot;[Sometimes] there is a little bit of a jump, but I&amp;#039;m here now and I know that it&amp;#039;s all going to work out fine.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
