MODERATORS
The fact that this is happening now and not at the end of season 2 implies studio shenaniganary and not listening to some dumb chuds.
Why would they sabotage viewership for season 2 instead of canceling it outright? Or at a minimum just dump the rest of it now?
My gut says it’s virtue signaling by management to the Ellison who’s gonna run the place in the not too distant future. Canceling the “woke” trek sounds like something sufficiently sycophantic for a Hollywood exec.
The worst part is now the chuds are taking a victory lap.
More like "vice signaling."
They can't dump season 2 right now because it only finished filming a month ago and there's a lot to be done after that.
Okay. Still doesn’t explain why they’d announce this now.
Just a guess, but maybe because S02 finished production and now would be the time to begin production on S03 including signing contracts with the cast and crew. If they didn't announce it, then all of those people out of work would sure as hell shout it from the rooftops.
This makes sense if they want to break down the sets.
