Warning: Season 2 finale spoilers here!

This is an interview with the show’s creator. I’ll post my opinion on it in the thread.

    I’d be lying if I said that I wasn’t a little disappointed to hear that the creators don’t have a real timeline in sight. I just watched the finale like an hour ago (have to wait a day for TWs to come in before I watch it with my partner), and I loved it, but knowing that S3 probably won’t the the finale is going to sting. I’m fine with questions being unanswered, I think it would be even more unbelievable if everything was explained, but I don’t think any of us want to be led along for years on the show before Apple orders a finale

      What gives you the impression that they don’t have a timeline?

      Finally, how long do you see this story continuing for?

      We’ve talked about it, and we’re pretty sure that we know how long it’s going. We’re keeping that close to the chest still at this point, but we have a pretty good sense of it.

      They don’t have a timeline that they’re sharing publicly, but it doesn’t sound like they’re just going to run out the clock until the show gets cancelled.

      I forgive world building, such as, “why is there a Lumon branded Sphygmomanometer?”. I just assume its to demonstrate the reach of the company. However, it doesn’t look like they’re planning on going back and answering some of the previously focused on plot lines such as Petey, Irving able to recall the Innie Irving black Hallway, or reintegration. Heck, even the goats don’t make sense. Just spiritual sacrifices? Thats it? An entire staff with animal breeding occurring inside an office building underground with employees that aren’t allowed to remember what they do all day that is raising goats when those goats are just sacrificed to be buried with someone? This feels like writers of Lost where they put things in they thought might be interesting to develop later when they had no idea what they’d mean when put in initially. Lazy writing.
