Too many “what got cancelled too soon” questions, what’s a show that went on too long?

Hard mode: no The Walking Dead

    Time jumps in sci-fi are hard to do right.

    Haven’t read The Expanse, but I know a lot of people who read Dune bailed when God Emperor jumped ahead over three thousand years.

      I was confused as hell and then I realized you were talking about a different series.

      Yeah, Dune series is insane. Tho, only God Emperor got that absurd time jump (3500 years with the prequel and 1500 years with the sequel). The other parts only got a few decades at most in between.

      The games Nier Replicant and Nier Automata got about nine thousand years between each other.
