Oh man, I wish I'd seen this before writing and submitting my post.

Super disappointed that this wasn't cancelled outright. There is no reason to put even a single additional dollar in this man's pocket.

Yeah but there are a lot of other people who will deservingly get paid at least

Honestly I'm really tired of that excuse. In an ideal world, the production would help all of those people find new jobs and Gaiman would have to pay some minimum cancellation sum (preferably some fraction, from 1/4-1/2 minimum, of a full season's wages to carry them through until their new job starts) out of pocket for fucking them over. Instead, the solution adds to his income, which he proven track record of using to pay off his victims and pay lawyers' fees for all those NDAs he makes them sign. There are also fans of his who are taking this as a sign that he didn't actually do anything illegal, because otherwise Amazon would have dropped him completely. The victims stay an afterthought in everything and I'm not okay with that ( ... )

100s of people have to suffer because of 1 person? Your ideal world doesnt exist.

And by that logic, practically entire studios would be shut down because the people running them who also get paid for shows they helped launch.

Sucks for everyone who works on this show but seems like Prime was looking a bit for a way out as well

I really wonder how successful it really was cause NG was dangling that renewal bait on his socials and it was so annoying, to say the least. "Oh, yeah, Terry and I totally had a continuation planned. But no, S2 can't be about that, it's about how the characters get to that place. But if you keep watching they'll renew it and *then* I can tell that continuation Terry and I dreamt up, for real this time! Pinky promise!!" ughhhh

Probably not super successful as S3 was already going to be the final season before the stuff about Gaiman cane out. Amazon would rather spend money dying on the Citadel hill
