I get that they realistically couldn't have made 5 seasons, but they could have made 3 seasons, made the episodes longer, or added more episodes.

The show is fantastic, but it clearly could benefit from more fleshing out in a lot of ways. The worst was Tay Kolma, a storyline representing the cost Mon would have to pay in her personal life. It could have been done brilliantly, but was instead finished and done in... maybe 2-3 minutes of dialogue.

Tony Gilroy has said they cant make a 5 season show because the actors would age too much. That is totally understandable, but its also a very far extreme. They could make some of the episodes an hour and a half (which is increasingly common in TV), they could add a few extra episodes, they could very easily do a season 3. Another year or two of aging isn't changing that much.

I mean, when I say they 'can' do these things, obviously they aren't. Its all done now. But it just came off like kinda a lame excuse.
