Know why next season gets long to come back sometimes

Fans are often curious when their favourite show will come back soon but it takes long sometimes. Tanya said they are “committed to bring back” next seasons in nearly "18 to 24 months from the previous one".

“Of course, we want to bring stories back as soon as we can, but we also want to make sure that when we do, it’s worth the wait. There is an expectation along with that anticipation, and it is something we take very seriously with our partners in every aspect of designing a returning season. The conflict, the characters, raising the stakes season on season, isn't easy, and we want to give our creators the intentionality to bring their best to the fans! Yet we are committed to bringing back our subsequent seasons in about 18 to 24 months from the previous one,” Tanya mentioned.
