Kristina pregnant parenthood

After an emotional Parentood season finale, it’s time to look ahead to next season.

Executive producer Jason Katims has a lot to talk about, such as whether Alex will be back next fall, whether Crosby and Jasmine actually reconciled, why he decided to make Kristina pregnant (and sort of gave it away in promos) and more.

Here are some excerpts from a recent interview Katims did with TV Line …

On whether Jasmine and Crosby reconciled: “I wouldn’t assume that.

They were finally talking – and I think we definitely earned that after Crosby spent so many episodes just trying to have a conversation with the woman.”

“[But] I don’t think that conversation necessarily leads to fixing all the problems that they have. The verdict is out in terms of where they are when we pick up with them next.”

On a time jump on next season’s premiere: “My instinct is there would be one.

We would [pick up] in the fall and follow the 'Parenthood': Welcome to the Bravermans, Nora! SOX
