I mean, the first three episodes would cover Abby’s three days, which still leaves another 3-4 episodes to tell the last part of story. They would have to add filler to do a 4th season.

    I didn't think about it in that level of detail. I was thinking more season 3 would be Abby's Seattle and 4 would be Ellie's journey to and from and an expanded ending. While I loved the ending in the game it left much to interpretation. They've done a tremendous job with the show so far and I trust whatever their decision, it will be good.

    They never wanted to give a definitive plan to get to 4 seasons other than they were not going to go “beyond” where the game ends. Given the structure they did for season 2, I can’t see it working without adding extra story. To get to 4 seasons they would need to focus more time on Abby flashbacks and increase the Santa Barbara portion.

    Santa Barbara felt a bit too short to me but I suppose if it were longer, it would just be too repetitive.

    Could be that is what caused the fallout. Maybe Neil was promised the chance to extend and explore his story more, but the ratings and backlash made them change their minds.
