If this was any other studio, they would not allow the creator of the show to run only 3 seasons. It would be changed and dragged.

Apple appreciated the creator and didn’t interfere with its story line letting the show run as intended

Thank goodness this awful, misguided, defamatory show is ending. Good riddance.

Could be saving face, but it sounds like from the creator (see link in original post) that the show was envisioned as a 3 season arc. If true, bravo for not pushing it further.

Not going to lie. First thought looking at the OP photo, "in what movie did Michael Jackson play a union soldier?" 🤣

A fantastic show, even if you are not into costume drama or poetry. The cast is so charismatic (Toby Huss as Dickinson's dad is a standout) and the series look and sound so stylish. It reminds me a lot of Heath Ledger's A Knight's Tale.

November 5 release date is a great surprise and I look forward to creator Alena Smith's future Apple TV+ series.
