The producers of the show have learned nothing from shows of the past: when you hit on a magical formula of cast, writing, and shooting style that proves extremely popular, DON'T SCREW WITH IT.
But then - this is Discovery after all. Dumbed down to the lowest possible common denominator on every single other show in their stable. Mythbusters was the only thing on that channel worth watching anymore. The suits there are genetically incapable of NOT screwing over good shows.
Ah well. It had a good long run of 11 seasons. Probably about time for them to wrap things up anyway. Just wish they'd be allowed to go out with dignity rather than the "Death of a Thousand Cuts" that Discovery is pulling on them.
