I really hope I'm not too late with this question. This is something I have always wanted to ask Jason.
The Moonlight Fans all have their own ideas, and theories regarding Josef Kostan's background. Everything from a connection to Elizabeth Bathory, and Vlad Teppich, to a member of the Russian or Georgian Nobility, to an uncloistered Irish Dominican (Catholic) Priest, and more. Were you ever given any indication as to whether Josef's history/background would have been explored, had there been a second season of Moonlight, and if so, what sort of historical background would you have liked to have seen attributed to the character?
Thank you kindly, and respectfully in anticipation of any reply you wish to give.

edited to add: Just a couple more questions while I think of them...
1) Were you surprised at just how popular the character of Josef ended up becoming, and to why do you think he has garnered such a strong following?
2) Were the writers on Moonlight ever planning to explain how Josef survived the bombing in his office?
