"We're gonna go ahead and release you today, OK?" Fisher said during the first episode which aired on Tuesday night. "You know, I just wanted to call and thank you. Just really appreciate everything you did for us and the commitment that you made and the teammate you were. I'll always be a fan. If anybody has got any questions, I'll certainly answer them truthfully and tell them what a pleasure you were to be around. Best of luck and I hope you land on your feet."
