About Alex & Charlie

“Alex is dealing with the newness that Charlie’s been taken from her and she’s desperately trying to find ways to being him back to her. It’s all about adjusting to all of that newness that was ripped out of her life. Her strength and determination and all her medical knowledge isn’t enough.” ~ Erica, CTV.Ca Interview, June 14, 2012

“He grounded her so much and he was someone she could talk to about the medical things going on in her cases. They really build in the characters and give people a glimpse of the connection they had together.” ~ Erica, CTV.ca Interview, June 14, 2012


"Alex is the love of his life and when they’re on their way to get married they take a taxicab and end up getting into an accident” ~ Michael


“Here they are in love, they’re stuck in two different universes, or parallels and they’re both dealing with this kind of tumultuous experience.
They’re both lonely, they’re both trying to figure out how do they get their way back to each other.
So we do these little flashback scenes every episode to give the audience a glimpse into the kind of relationship they had.” ~ Erica


“Her main dilemma is what do you do when someone is taken away from you? And how do you keep moving and how do you keep hoping for them?” ~ Erica


“Alex is the love of his life, you know Alex is the yin to his yang in a lot of different ways and they have a shared interest in their profession, but there’s also a role that each other fits in.
She’s someone who is very strong when it comes to her job and very assertive in that position, but emotionally she’s probably a little bit more in need of a shoulder to lean on. He provides that.
And she provides the levity and the laughter that is probably necessary for his life that’s been lacking for a long time and ... yeah that’s the best way to put it, that she’s the love of his life.” ~ Michael



“I think there’s a lot of relatable with what she’s going through, because there’s not one of us who hasn’t been touched by some point of tragedy in our lives and how do you continue going on?
And I think that’s probably the cruellest thing that anyone would say is that time keeps going.
And so when her world is falling apart, when Alex’s world is falling apart time keeps marching on.
And so how is she balancing that and how is she coping with keeping those two worlds going and you start to see in certain episodes how she’s falling apart and work is falling apart and her personal life is falling apart,
so I think that there’s a lot of things people can relate to in that.” ~ Erica


“I think the beauty of the relationship she had with Charlie is that he is the opposite of her.
He is optimistic, he believes in other things that are out there. He is calm and quiet and safe and he’s kind of her safety is the way I think of it.
That wonderful love that you find, I mean there’s all different kinds of love in your life, but I believe that for Alex that Charlie is that balancing factor, that one that kind of really is the best.
You know they say love what’s best for you and I think that that’s what he is for her.” ~ Erica


“Anytime we get to do a flashback and Charlie gets to be in bed with Alex that’s a lot of fun. I don’t know why it just is. Call me crazy.” ~ Michael

“She tries to play a song for him that she hopes he’ll remember and it ends up that his hand moves and it’s the way he always used to hold her hand. And it’s this moment of joy and elation and sadness and desperation that fuel the next few episodes.” ~ Erica, CTV.Ca Interview, June 14, 2012

“This whole season is about her journey to try to bring him back, trying various methods and trying different ways to reach him." ~ Erica, The Hollywood Reporter Interview, June 14, 2012

What we saw of their relationship in the pilot was so beautiful One of the moments I loved was how they ran to eachother after they were done checking the victims at the crash site and they were laughing and talking about them getting married and they hugged But then he collapsed

[now.it.all.begins]

I know they thought that the danger was over but the worst was yet to come.
