I really enjoyed this series, built on a great premise that ghosts are real and not necessarily scary, and packed with lots of offshoot ideas, with each host offering an opportunity to look at the time period they came from.
This last episode where they chose to slam the door shut on the series and any chance of it continuing was so very premature and unnecessary. Maybe the writers were feeling they were running out of ideas? You could tell in some episodes they were scrapping crumbs together but they shouldn't have been.
There was so much left to explore.
For a start the whole premise of what was happening. Why the ghosts were there, why do they get to or not get to move on?
Then the back story in more depth of each character. I do get that keeping in vague helped the success of the show but even so, there's so much more to dig through. Alison's vision was not limited to just the house so the stories on offer were as limitless as her travel and the people she meets. It really was an endless stream of opportunities for good stories and insights.
There were so many lovely details already in the series (The caring nature of the plague people was just one), perhaps the writers knew their limitations and that they were out of fuel, which.
So, get some more writers on board. Supervise them to make sure they stay true to the series. If the money isn't good enough, ask for more.
The ending felt like a cop out, and it most likely was. I know some of the actors have moved on to big screen stuff but a hollywood flop is hardly better use of time and talent.
That said it's a big thank you for the journey from me. I'd much rather the 5 series existed than not and I hope we get to see more quality ideas like this show.
