Hey guys, it's press tour time! Seasons 4 and 5 are the best, you're super excited.

Try not to mention that the show has done the reverse beard and gotten worse every season. Also try not to mention how it's already canceled, with 2 more filmed sunk-costs... I mean seasons, already in the can.

I agree with your view of that particular show's downward spiral, but let's be fair. It looks like this entire current era of Star Trek has been cancelled, not just SNW.

Something you've already paid for, being doubled down on? No, that's not unique. That's right from the Wiki.

Good on you for trying to learn though.

They announced the show would be ending, but gave it another season. That's the opposite of a sunk cost, but thanks for showing your whole ass.
