If they were going to do a season 3, starting production now is very very very late…

They claimed this one would come quicker, lmao, what a joke.

The last time between seasons was 3 years, so Spring 2027 would be 2 years since season 2, and therefore 33% quicker!

I would hope they've been spending all this time perfecting the story and script. But I think first season was better written than second despite several years to write it, so maybe not.

what?? what were they doing before? the show famous for waiting too long between seasons hadn’t even started???

I mean it was three years between season 1 and 2. If they're already in production, season 3 should have a shorter turn around (maybe?).

You have to appreciate though that they’re probably busy working on all the other critically acclaimed smash hit shows they have going at the moment.

I didn't like the choices of the characters in season 2. A lot. I don't think I'll watch season 3. Season 1 was phenomenal. I'm not hipstering this.

I remember thinking season 1 was amazing and some of the best tv I had watched in years, and couldn't wait for the next season. But by the time it arrived I had forgotten most of the details of season 1, so I have never gotten around to watching it.

great because I saw one while it was free to me and won't watch anymore unless it falls in my lap. Looks like I caught the best of it.

I honestly thought it ended...

Apple has bought the show and is now developing spinoffs. It’ll be around for a while.

Oh really!? For a show that has been slowly getting nowhere with its character development and story it turns out it has slow production as well.
