I understand sometimes these things are out of writers, and showrunners, hands. However, he would've just been better to say it's not on the cards this season. Moyer is probably the most well known of the cast, granted, since True Blood did well in the United Kingdom as well. However, amongst the younger generation in the UK (the E4 generation), Sean Teale is equally well known because he was in Skins and it was a huge success here. Amy Acker has a following because of her genre-roles. Jamie Chung is also relatively well known since she was on Once Upon A Time which did well here and in the United States (although, she was just recurring). Still, even in interviews with the cast, Moyer seems to jump in to talk about Reed when he really is one of the weakest links on the show. That said, Nix's answer was about Reed when that wasn't the question. It feels like they push the character a lot.
On the same note, I'm not sure the majority of the cast interviews well. They always strike me as a little "off".
