(That said, my reading of "signed for three seasons" is that three seasons is a pretty standard streaming contract and that it's less about the promise of renewing the show and more about locking in actors' salaries while they don't have any negotiating power.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I do wish this season had more episodes. And that more than one more season was confirmed. I like the idea of the long Shane/Ilya story with everyone else's folded in chronologically but I think it would be easier to pull off with more overall time to tell it
I didn't hate how The Long Game ended but I have some reservations. Which would make it really interesting to have the show go on past the books (potentially the opposite of Game of Thrones)

Yes to all of that, Jess. I shudder to think.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If there is more time, then I hope we get at least some of Tough Guy, along with Role Model.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Jacob Tierney optioned 7 books, including one as yet unwritten. My guess is it's going to be a sequel to The Long Game with a plentiful sprinkling of Scott & Kip if they want to make a third season from it.

Oooh. Excellent!
I would like to get a bit of Ryan if we can, I feel like his story illuminates everyone else’s nicely

That's my feeling, too. His works as a lead-in to both Troy/Harris and The Long Game.

I just listened to three straight guys wit a hockey podcast (“Empty Netters”) break down episode 5 and it was amazing listening to them be so into it and take it seriously!! (I’d seen snippets of them talking about other episodes on TikTok so decided to listen to the whole thing for this episode)

There are at least two hockey guy podcasts doing that -- the other is What Chaos or something like that -- and they both seem really cool.
