AboutNancy Pratt Expertise My main area of expertise is the character of Admiral A. J. Chegwidden portrayed by actor John M. Jackson. I created and maintain "The Admiral Fact Book," which covers all information known about the Admiral so far from the show. However, I have watched JAG since the first episode and been involved in on-line JAG Fandom for several years and believe I can answer most general questions about the show.
Experience I run the John M. Jackson Admiration Society, the unofficial fan club of actor John M. Jackson, and maintain its website. I also was involved in putting on the first ever JAG Convention and then went on to found the JAGFanFest - both west and east coast events. I have met almost all the actors as well as many of the writers, directors, and production staff. I occasionally write JAG fanfic, and I am the editor of The Jackson Journal, the on-line newsletter of the JMJAS.

Question Do you think there will be a "Jag Reunion" show that will address the issue of whether or not Harm and Mac ACTUALLY got married and who won the toss at the end of the last season? I have every episode taped. I just love to hear it, even if I'm not watching it. We Jag mania people should start a petition or something. Thanks for the answer to the last question I asked.
Answer Hi Anita,
I seriously doubt there will ever be a JAG Reunion show. For one thing, there is no love lost between DJE and DPB, so I'm not sure you could ever get DJE to sign on to such a show. From all accounts, it was not a pleasant parting of the ways. Also, I doubt that DPB really wants that question answered. DPB had been rather adamant all along that he did not want to put Harm and Mac together. I think the ending we got was his way of trying to satisfy the shippers without actually having to put Harm and Mac together for certain. Or he may feel that it's already been answered - his plan for JAG, had it been renewed, was for Harm and Mac to have gone their separate ways, so he may feel that's all that needs to be said about it.
We could certainly start a petition, but I think the odds that it would work are small. And besides, if he were to do a reunion show, which part of his audience should he piss off? If he does a reunion show, and it turns out that Harm and Mac are married, all those who hated those two as a couple could be forever soured on the show, hurting future dvd sales. If he does a reunion show, and it turns out they did not get married, then the shippers are furious, and they might decide not to bother purchasing dvd sets. Honestly, he has nothing to gain and a lot to lose with a reunion show. Just my personal opinion anyway. :)
