        I haven’t watched the show, apparently they purposely end it because the new books is a time jump

          Big brain move here. They’re going to wait 20 years so the actors age appropriately and they can save a ton on makeup costs before they start filming the next season :>

          There’s a huge time jump yeah, but I don’t that was the primary reason they didn’t want to continue. It got cancelled after season 3, then resuced by Amazon (Bezos personally loved the show) but then they didn’t renew for season 7 as I don’t think they wanted to commit financially.

            The fact the story in the latter seasons started angling towards the whole underclass starting a massive uprising probably rustled his oligarch jimmies a bit :>

            AMAZONS ROP is probably sucking up all the funding from the other shows, it cost like 1-2 billion per season? and invincible animation suffered alot.
