It’s a deeply personal and conflicted story. In terms of what the audience thinks they want, obviously there are ways of telling the story where they get arrested, where John gets killed, where there’s a comeuppance for these characters. But from the beginning of how we conceived this series, that was not how this was intended to play out. Some people tend to like things that are more life-affirming, relationship-affirming, family, it will work out, there will be resolution. But the reality of this with the Rayburns is hopefully going to a place that’s deeper that resonates with a sense of, “What does that actually mean? What would I do if I was in their position?” As opposed to, “I can close this story, end the series of Bloodline and feel like it’s more affirming or reaffirming or there’s a sense of hope or rightness in the world.” Obviously with how the world is unfolding, every hour it seems, it doesn’t have to go that way and it doesn’t always go that way. So the feeling for us from the very beginning was this was going to be a family tragedy, and going all the way to the most powerful stories that are tragedies, things don’t tend to resolve themselves in a tidy way.

As you were putting together the final season, how much did you think of the fans and their expectations and questions they had for the end of the series, and how much did you focus on what you’d envisioned as the ultimate endpoint for the series?a b c Bart D. Ehrman (2004). Truth and Fiction in The Da Vinci Code: A Historian Reveals What We Really Know about Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and Constantine. Oxford University Press. ISBN 978-0-19-518140-1. In season 3, this all comes to a head, with more and more blood on John, Kevin, and Meg's hands. Are the Rayburns bad people? According to John, "We're not bad people, but we did a bad thing," but at this point, that's debatable. Even Sally, who seems relatively innocent throughout Bloodline's run, is not free of blame and misdeeds. At the end of season 3, Meg escapes Florida, moving across the country and changing her name, while Kevin is on his way to prison. Meanwhile, John might finally be coming clean about Danny's death, but after everything that's happened, people genuinely think he's crazy and don't believe him, or they just don't care. The Jesus bloodline refers to the proposition that a lineal sequence of descendants of the historical Jesus has persisted, possibly to the present time. The claims frequently describe Jesus as having married, often to Mary Magdalene, and as having descendants living in Europe, especially France but also the UK. Differing and contradictory Jesus progeny scenarios, as well as more limited claims that Jesus married and had children, have been proposed in numerous modern books. Some such claims have suggested that Jesus survived the crucifixion and went to another location such as France, India or Japan. Piovanelli, Pierluigi (2019).
