The last two episodes of The CWs Ringer answered most of the questions fans have been wrestling with since the pilot episode.
Note: Spoilers if you havent watched the first season finale, Im the Good Twin.

On the episodes leading into the finale, we found out that Andrews (Ioan Gruffudd) ex-wife Catherine (Andrea Roth) was the one trying to kill Siobhan. And as of Tuesdays finale, we also know just how far back Siobhans plan to have her sister killed in her place goes. Also, Bridget confessed her true identity to Andrew and Juliet (Zoey Dutch), which didnt go well. But, there was one big reveal that opens new doors for the story: Bridget now knows that Siobhan is alive.
It felt right. Its time to let Bridget have the upper hand, Executive Producer Pam Veasey tells The Hollywood Reporter. She has been playing on the defense the whole year, keeping a secret. What if they find out? What consequences does it have for me? I wont be able to go back home. I cant go back to Wyoming, I cant go back to Lake Tahoe. My sister committed suicide. I stepped into her shoes. Shes always been on the defensive. Now its time to give her a little bit of information so she can be on the offensive.
So, both sisters are now in New York, their covers have been blown and theyre alone. So, where would that that take season two if The CW were to renew the series? The next season would rely on living in the present, Veasey says.
If you think about the past season, it had a lot of back-story, she continues. The beauty of another season would be that wed live in the present, only in the present. Thats the beauty of answering all the questions. All the secrets are out and past, and now its the consequences of both the lies and the truth.
Veasey, who also executive-produces CBS CSI: NY, says that she still has no idea whether the series will be renewed. But, thankfully Ringer is on The CW (as opposed to sister network CBS, where it was supposed to air) and it doesnt necessarily make its renewal decisions on ratings alone.
The ratings were a challenge to understand, she says. We were rolling along, we took a dip, we came back up, then we were taken off, then we dived down.
CW works completely different, she goes on to explain. It has to do with all this brilliantly new technology that people are downloading and tweeting. We got the most downloaded from iTunes, and the most this and the most that, which is something I dont deal with on CSI: NY.
