Yeah but they had that big movie deal to get working on, had to put a bow on it.
The thing that still blows my mind is that they evidently could not comprehend that pulling this sort of bullshit would have sharply negative effects on their future in all of showbusiness. Like, they had a Star Wars movie signed. That’s still a bit of a thing nowadays, and when they got it, it was an even bigger deal. And they spiked it because they couldn’t be fucked to put in the effort to give one of the most popular TV series EVER a reasonably meaningful, satisfying, and well-written conclusion.
Even if we get nothing else from those last seasons, at the very least it'll serve as a warning to show runners in future. You can be responsible for one of the biggest and best shows ever but if you don't stick the landing people will never forgive you.
I wonder how they feel about it now, what a waste of an opportunity.
I hope it drives them to drink cheaply.
