With the 3rd season of the series starting to bring the pieces together, there are still many questions which have to be answered. Fans are expecting a great finish to the series which has taken four years to complete & the director is planning to deliver a great resolve to most of the series secrets.
WHO IS COMING BACK?
All of the primary cast members are returning for the final season. Brittany Clark [Angelika], Angelica Grayson [Brianna], Jessica Yanker [Sabrina], Maque Garcia [Holly], Saira Ramos [Ms. Rachael], Eddie Enriquez [James], Mary King [Det. Blair], Kacey Kelly [Bianca], RaCayle Eppes [Tanna], Rainey Beaumier [Howitzer] & Michael Garcia [Det. Vincent]. They have consitently been a great set of professional talent in front & behind the camera. With the finish line so close in the horizon, all are ready to bring forth their best performances for a spectacular ending to the online series, then take the rest to the big screen.
WHO IS NEW FOR SEASON 4?
Matthew Jasso [Arthur], Mika Brooks [Kari-Anne], Ashlyn Redwine [Younger Sabrina], Sydney Crofton [Younger Brianna], Shannon Kummer [Andrea], Emily Thompson [Samantha] & Melissa Dawn Smith [Emma]. Their entry into the series will be paramount to close out some plot lines which were left wide open in the 3rd season. The addition of the plot line between Jasso & Smith will conclude the ominous dream sequences & nightmares between Art & Emma; leading to more mystery over the appearance of Emma & a possible evil twin. Redwine & Crofton are being brought to the series to tell the story of a possible homicide that happened a few years prior to Angelika's arrival to Montgomery; this variation of youthful insight will also be brought into the ANGELIKA5 movie.

WHAT TRULY HAPPENED TO BRIANNA?
Grayson has done marvelous playing both "Good" & "Evil" Brianna throughout the shows run. Last that most remember about Season 2, saw the real Brianna being drug into a closet by a Vapor Person; with an evil look-alike taking her place & causing tons of havoc with red glowing eyes. The truth will definitely set things in motion, revealing who in the town are the sheep, who are the wolves & who are standing guard in an attempt to keep the town alive.
The focus of the 4th Season will be the training involved by unseen forces to prepare for a huge war that looms ahead. Brianna's part in the series could forge a new angle to the plans laid down before her. She will be given a choice to either follow the leader, or be the one that can change the way of thinking for everyone.
ARE THE DREAM SEQUENCES AN INSIGHT TO THE TRUTH?More than most will ever know. In reality, most dreams are considered "Harbingers" of messages that have meanings in daily life. Many believe that if you can "decode" dreams, that you will have better control of what lies ahead tomorrow; the clearer the dream with colors, details & feeling, the more important the "code" is. So far in each dream sequence, Holly [Maque Garcia] has been tied up with yellow rope, wearing the same clothes & placed in some sort of danger. Each time she has had nothing nice to say about Art, except that "he's probably at home watching TV."
The dreams have also opened in the same manner, a short introduction of a dark character [Arthur], a long walk through a tunnel of woods, & then a sudden awakening of a problem that lie ahead. How Art makes his entry into each dream is just as important as trying to wake up, which happened during the latter part of Season 3. So the question is, was Arthur trying to fall into sleep or fall out of it?

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE ACTORS PORTRAYING THE ROLE OF ART?
Some fans mayhave seen a fine line between the secret of the show & how the character of "Arthur McAdams" has never really been given the chance to develop. Both facets of this spectrum are true. At times the character has been mysterious, dark & dry; then a more dramatic, melancholy & subservient preview; to now seeing a real, humorous avenue of a man.
The past actors who have taken the role did their parts splendidly & then decided to part from the series on their own terms. The studio has been lucky finding different [but consistent] actors to portray the character of Art; unwittingly giving birth to the idea of the shows secret, which will be revealed sometime in the mid-portion of the storyline & plot of Season 4.
Jasso's entry into the series has been a smooth transition, giving a strength to the presentation of the character not seen since the beginning of Season 3. He is working harder to better understand the character & the plot to better facilitate the overall dealing of Art's story, which has had more turns & arcs than it needed to. Jasso is a determined professional & wants only the best for his character to be accepted & marveled at the same time; he's going to up the ante this season & I suspect his performance will inspire the series to an all new level of entertainment.
WAS EMMA REAL OR WAS SHE A DREAM?We truly hoped to open the doorway to a whole new plotline with Emma during Season 3, but due to some unfortunate circumstances, we were never given the chance. I didn't want to just let this part of the show die out without any explanation. So, I struggled with the idea of re-casting the role & then saw a light at the tunnel after watching Melissa Dawn Smith's performance in the Indy feature "BLACKLASH" with Matthew Jasso.
They both had great chemistry on the big screen & I truly admired the fact that Melissa's presence in front of the camera is spectacular in each project she works in. She has a great look & is very comfortable with her self awareness. Contacting her for the part was a little extreme for me, since she lives in San Antonio & I felt that most of the talent in Houston could not play the part to my level. So, I was willing to deal at any level to bring her down to play a role. She seemed genuinely excited to do it & to work with Mattew again.
So now with Melissa's help, Emma will get the closing I wanted; & as it has played out so many times in the show, there is always a dark side which will play out to the fans before Emma leaves for good. So don't be surprised if the series takes a sudden, dark turn in the middle of Season 4.
WILL THE LOCATIONS FOR SEASON 4 REMAIN THE SAME?As with the main actors, all of the same locations have been preserved for one more season. The Lightsey, Grayson, & Scardino Ranches are more than excited to bring the last season of the series into fruition, especially since there are no plans in blowing anything up. But after the new season wraps & the series dives into feature film production, none of the old locations will be used.
END NOTE - Well folks, that's all that I can write about for now. We plan on presenting some previews of the new season through photos & a few Behind The Scenes (BTS) interviews at a later time. Keep in mind that I am aware that there may be some questions that I didn't cover in this blog posting, but more will be revealed in a "step-by-step, episode-by-episode" breakdown which will accompany every new release during the final season.
Until then, Ride Easy, My Friends!
Intense! I cannot wait to see the new season.
