It does not seem possible that the mid season break is upon us as it seems like just yesterday that we were still waiting for the premiere to start after a long summer of repeats. However, it is a reality we must face when this Friday brings us the Winter finale and episode 11 which is really close to the half way-point.
This is the first time the show has presented the fans with a winter finale and according to EP Peter Lenkov, there will also be a cliffhanger for the first time. Guess this will also be the holiday episode this year based on the promo and info so it will be a great present for the fans.
Here is the promo, press release, and screencaps to get you ready.
