'I want to continue so bad it's not even funny,' Tony told UsWeekly.

'That's why I put a tweet out there saying, "Bring us back!" The producers want us back, I want to be back, Kim wants to be back — so the only people they needed to convince was the lawyers.' 

And the longtime ABC vet was behind Kim 100 percent. 

'She did the right thing,' he said.
