I'm confident they'll fill the void with more video clips of John McClain slobbering over Anna Megan Raley's chesticles.

Can I be one of your luxury hostesses? It never hurts to have a backup plan.

Good luck, don't be a stranger!

[FROM JOHN: You know I won't be a stranger. Still waiting for that Kiss Cam opportunity. It couldn't possibly go as bad as the proposal went the other night. You Da Woman.]

I like to think that might have been intentional. Kind of like Berkman's "writer of wrongs" quip.
