I really wish it was buried. It was a trainwreck from the get-go due to writers actively hating the material they were working with. Cavil was what little soul that the show had and now he is gone too.

Not surprising because of the strike, but I’m not really interested in the series without Cavill.

Maybe with the delay they can fix the relationship with Henry so I can start watching the show again stopped watching when Henry was fired

Haven't watched the third season since the second season was awful. They didn't understand what was working in the first season.
Getting Cavill won't happen and even if it did, that was just one smaller problem compared to the whole show transforming into boring dumb fantasy. Cavill alone can't save the show.

But Henry Cavill has been in every episode that has aired. He's been replaced for the fourth season - so do you mean you stopped watching while Henry Cavill was still on it, or did you hypothetically stop watching the season that hasn't yet been filmed?

I canceled Netflix but was going to resub after the second season but they fired Henry so no resub Witcher is basically the only show I watch on Netflix so it was easy to just stop caring about the show

I enjoyed the show (especially with Henry), minute to minute, bunch of cool and well done scenes, but overall it just didn’t hold together. I’m fine with not over explaining, but generally speaking I didn’t know what was going on or why I should care. (I only read one of the books and didn’t really play the games)

They go off in other directions so reading books doesn't help much. It is just poor writing of the show.

The Algorithm was vast and cool and unsympathetic. It did not care about quality or lack thereof; it only demanded compliance. That this human endeavor be continued or terminated was for it and it alone to decide. No one from mortal Man could confidently discern its motives, only that they must obey.

Annoyingly lean on facts, but plenty of speculation.

Show should have died shortly after the trash that was Season 2 came out. Season 1 had issues, but Season 2 was total dogshit.

Just cancel it already.

The one time I’m actively hoping for them to cancel a show they don’t. What the fuck are they even thinking? I’d rather have another season of live action Cowboy Bebop than a season of Witcher without Henry. Watching the last three episodes of that show I’ll ever watch as I type this.

I have no interest in anime, but I loved Cowboy Bebop. Really wish that would have kept going.
