Why are the ending the show after 5 seasons without any real replacement? Seems like it's easy to keep an animated show going since you're not limited on what's 'realistic' like with live action

Despite the series' popularity with...people like us, I don't think the numbers were where Paramount+ wanted them. It seems like they have issues with animation in general, which is a damn shame.

My issue wasn't with the show, but with Paramount+ as an app with it's 60+ trackers. I actually really like the show, just not enough to deal with Paramount's spyware.

My tracking the years implies this season will take place in the same year as Prodigy season 2...

Given that I have some idea in my head that it would be somewhat more difficult to do a season during the Synth incident and the aftermath given how serious that time is so they are ending it tastefully before that.

Also, I'm sad it's going but also recognize that some of my best, favourite comedy shows are like 3 seasons long. (IT Crowd, Black Books)

The Brits have it right I think, end the comedy on a high note where the whole thing stands out rather that slogging it along for the cash cow.
