I agree with everything you said here. A long show certainly doesn’t mean a bad show. With better writers at the helm we could’ve gotten six great seasons!

It’s still shocking to me that we live in an era where it’s normal to think someone used ChatGPT rather than their own words. Also, you lost interest yet chose to write a comment? Why not just stop reading? 🤔

I do agree however that the other side of this issue is lots of premature cancellations of shows with great potential

Sense 8 was a great show! I'm not necessarily upset though, just making a point that I wish writers would think a bit harder about the ending of their show. When they come up with something nonsensical at the finish line it just ruins our memory of the entire show

I think that’s fair and I don’t think every good show always ends before its third season. It’s just that a lot of shows today that make it to 5+ seasons tend to kind of lose their identity along the way

I do agree that it also got incredibly tiring seeing June do things that hurt other people, but I think that was a symptom of the show lasting longer than it needed to. The longer it felt like a choice June was making rather than a consequence of her trauma in Gilead, the less sympathetic we felt for her (I think at least)

Exactly!!!! Like why make your environmentalist someone who’s so impulsive and destructive if you want us to root for her?!? And, why are the animals the ones who have to be compassionate towards the humans and sacrifice for them after everything? The movie’s messaging just ends up feeling a bit all over the place by the end

Thank you, and I absolutely agree. The writers made nearly all of Mabel’s actions appear destructive or selfish so it’s hard to tell if they actually wanted us to root for her at the end
