Reunion (cancelled TV show)

Did anyone else watch this show? I absolutely loved it. It was similar to the premise of "24" except that each episode represented the following year in the story, so that the entire show was supposed to cover 20 years in 20 episodes. The story was a group of 6 close high school friends, and on the night of their 20 year reunion, one of the 6 is killed, with the others being among the suspects. You didn't find out who was killed until about episode 4, and then the mystery was who the killer was, though the really interesting part was all the stories of their lives along the way. I was so mad when the show was cancelled, and more mad that they never really gave the show a chance. They showed 2 or 3 episodes, and then the show went away for 4 -6 weeks during the baseball playoffs. Can't imagine why the show didn't make it!

Anyway, they've pretty much confirmed that the show is dead and won't be picked up by anyone else, and they've released the name of the killer. Who did it in and of itself doesn't mean that much to me, because it's not just about the who but why and how they got there. I see how it would have been impossible to wrap up the show in one episode, but I hope that they'll manage to find a way to let us know what the story was going to be. If they know who the killer was supposed to be, they presumably had the story flushed out.

Here's who the killer was supposed to be, which I'm putting in spoiler tags just for the heck of it.

Spoiler:
