Amazon has renewed for a 6th and final season.
Yeah I saw that. The show creators said it was a natural pause point for the series, which I definitely agree with. I get the impression that they still want to put the last three seasons out, but they may take a break for a while before doing it.
Spoilers for books 7-9
it sounds to me that if they did put a 7th - 9th seasons out, they would probably recast everyone. That makes it easier to do the 30 year gap than just aging everyone in the makeup room. On top of that, with all of the stuff surrounding Cas Anvar, this way you only have to write Alex out of the show for a season, instead of getting rid of his character from the storyline completely.These guys have a lot of experience playing the network cancelled us game, so I really wouldn't be shocked to see them take a hiatus for a couple years then getting the show released somewhere down the line. That's what I hope at least. The last two books of the series (and the series finale that they are finishing writing now) deserve a chance to be seen on tv.
